Judee was not only my friend but we shared the most valuable gift that GOD could have blessed us with, our grandchildren. She was one awesome lady, loving, caring, giving to others unselfishly. She loved her grandchildren and children with every ounce of herself. She is missed by so many but welcomed to heaven by those awaiting her arrival. You'll always be in my heart. I love you, Juju!

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

You were my bestfriend, my MOTHER-N-LOVE, and the BEST Grandma Alexis and Londyn could ask for. I miss you soooo much already and already wish I could hear your voice but I know you are so happy dancing with Alex.

Until I see you again, remember I LOVE YOU FOREVER!!!

Your "Pinky"
