My sincere condolences to the Family. Judy was such a Beautiful lady. On every occasion that I was around John and Judy I was amazed at what I saw. Never did I see them without being hand in hand and have smiles on their faces as they watched Jonathan golf or Chelsey playing Tennis or just when I would see them while visiting John and Tammy. They were both the kindest and most loving couple to watch and talk to. May Judy rest in peace and may God watch over John and provide him with comfort as he has lost the Love of his Life. To Debbie, John and Kim my heart aches for you all. And to Jonathan and Chelsey, I Love you both and I'm so sorry you have lost another wonderful Mamaw. May God Bless your entire Family
