My condolences goes out to the Judkins and Woolridge Family. Kendra was a good friend and a wonderful person. When I came to Petersburg City school she was my very first friend. She always had something good to say and she kept a smile on her face at all times. She will truely be missed. One thing I can say about Kendra is the face that we may not have talked on a daily basis but you couldn't tell. She was the type of person that always picked up from the last conversation that she had with anyone. She is gonna be missed like crazy.......Tiffney Pritchett Bullock (South Hill, VA)

My daughter meant the world to me. She fought a long hard battle with her illness and I (her mother) was there every step of the way. God sees and he cares about the burdens we bear. But in the midst of the storm, there's good news you're not alone. God is the "Lifter" of your head. I love you my daughter, may you "rest in peace".
