JUDIE HOLMES Obituary

Published by Richmond Times-Dispatch on Nov. 18, 2009.
HOLMES, Judie M., 72, of Powhatan, died November 16, 2009. She is survived by her loving companion, Vic Hall; two children, Patricia " Patti" Fraser of Midlothian, Michael R. Holmes of Florida; three grandchildren, Lindsay, Kelly and Warren Fraser. Judie lived for many years in California, Georgia and Maryland before finding her perfect country home in Powhatan. She tirelessly worked on behalf of causes that touched her heart and sense of justice, but as a student of life, she also found time to pursue numerous hobbies and to care for her beloved dogs. She was entirely devoted to her family, greatly enjoyed the company of her friends, and found yet another home at her church, St. Luke's. Judie will be remembered for her fun, loving spirit, inquisitive mind and endless sense of artistic expression. She loved to debate the topic of the day and did so with brilliance and passion. She touched many lives and will be sadly missed by a host of loving family and community. A memorial service will be held Thursday, 11 a.m., in St. Luke's Episcopal Church, Powhatan. Interment private. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to St. Luke's Episcopal Church.

Michael, my thoughts and prayers are with you and on your family, with the loss of your mom. She was always wonderful to me. I will remember her smile and how she made me laugh, just as hard as I made her laugh.

Judie was my "go to" girl for many years. She gave me wise counsel and lifted my spirits when I was going thru a couple of ruff patches in my life. She always made me laugh!!! She will be greatly missed. K.Jan

Vic, Patty and Michael,

I can't express in words how much I will miss Judie. We shared many great times together, and became very close friends. My thoughts and prayers will be with each of you in the coming days.
