My most heartfelt sympathy to John, Kathy and their families. Judy was a quiet but friendly class mate at LHS, and a wonderful wife, mother, and neighborhood friend in the old Level Park days. It was an honor to have such friends as Judy and Bones. May the family take comfort in knowing the positive affect she had on many. Class of 60'.

Our condolences and prayers are with the Perry family. We loved Judy being part of our church family and also being our friend. We will really miss her but know in our hearts we will see her in Heaven again.
