Renowned for their generosity, their home was often the

epicenter of holiday gatherings and family traditions. Judy was a legendary crossword, Scrabble and puzzle genius. She possessed a kind and irresistible core, and remained in awe of life and family from an early age until her departure. Her

sardonic humor was lauded by friends and family. Judy's

essence of joy and compassion was unique. She believed in family and friends and the adventure of life and discovery. She was dear, devoted and conscientious. If Judy loved someone they knew it. Her sweetness will never be matched. A

celebration of life will be held 9/11/21 at the Coffman Pavilion within Coffman Park in Dublin, Ohio, (5200 Emerald Parkway) from 1-4 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to The Dayton Foundation for the Judith G. Berg Memorial

Mrs. Waggoner was one of my elementary school teachers in Springfield, Ohio. I'm nearly 53 years old now and I've never forgotten her and the love and laughter she shared with all of us kids.

Many condolences to the family and friends.

See you on the other side Mrs. Berg!
