Not sure what to say?

Jerry and I knew Judy through our church, All Saints Lutheran Church. She had already had her stroke when we met her. She was the most loving and happy person that we were blessed to know. Always friendly to us and just a light in our Sunday services. We know that she is now in the loving arms of Jesus, and I hope that brings comfort to Jared and the rest of the family. Jared, we wanted to be at her service today, but Jerry is still unable to go anywhere. I wanted to let you know how much we...

I have a great memory of driving my new truck from Texas up to the Naval Academy the summer of 2002. Ms. Judy is the mom of my then-roommate Jared, and I stayed one night at their house in Georgia, as part of my drive up north. Judy was so doting on me, taking care of me as though I was her own son Jared. She stuffed me full of her famous breakfast sandwiches the morning of my departure, and I did not need to eat again all day! I miss her kind smile, and I take solace she is at peace.

Rest in peace Judy... Your gentle smiling face will always be in our memories. Sending {{{HUGS}}} & Love to Jared

Even though she’s now passed, the memories of her joyful spirit live on in our hearts.

From Missouri - we didn’t know Judith but she must had been a wonderful person because we do know her terrific son that she raised. Jared - from AS- we had the opportunity of knowing him and loving him a few years ago- one great guy! The Blumenstocks

Joslyn, we love you and our hearts ache for your loss. Remembering you and your family in our prayers. You are so blessed to have such an extended family at a time like this. Love to you, Harriet and Bill

My heart is broken to hear of Judy's passing. She was such a good soul and shined a light wherever she was. I regretted moving away from Blairsville because I left some dear friends, with Judy and Jared being two of the best.

Heartbroken to hear of Judith’s passing! Judith and the whole Odgen family are really special people and made a meaningful impression on me. I was in confirmation class/youth group with Joslyn. I’m really praying and thinking of the whole family in this difficult time. Much love!

Sending the family our love and comforting prayers during this difficult time.
