Read MoreA great, gentle, witty man. A true pleasure to know. Both he and his wife would have my vote as the greatest pair of lovebirds I've ever known.

No doubt his selection as King Antonio had something to do with that, but regardless, all of us who knew him are so much better for it and no doubt we can all be thankful for the many warm memories of him. ...

Mr. George Judson Jr. would always walk the candy plant and talk to the employees, when I worked there and he made us feel like we were really appreciated. He was the person that asked me, if I wanted to be a candymaker, when he saw me doing my other job there and I jumped at the chance. I left later, but my dream to be a candymaker had been fullfilled since I had told one of my teachers I was going to be a candymaker, when I was in the second grade; while we went there on a tour. RIP!
