I just learned of Judy's passing today and am deeply saddened. Judy was--and is--an angel who never had an unkind word to say about anyone. We got to know each other over the past few years at our Weight Watchers meeting where she made her goal and always cheered the rest of us on. She was a great support to me when I had difficulty continuing to lose, and I will miss her deeply. My condolences and love to her family.

As you know, Judy was a precious woman. A true example of God's tender and loving heart. She will be missed, but I imagine her in her Father's arms experiencing overwhelming joy and peace. I love you all and wish you the best. God bless.

I'm so saddened to hear of the loss of Judy. She was such a bright sunshine of a person; full of love, compassion, and humility. I adored her. As my aunt, she always had nothing but kind things to say and sweetness to give. I am thinking of you all and sending you my warmest thoughts of healing. Much love from afar~
