Not sure what to say?

I have such wonderful memories and shared many laughs with Judy and her friends Ruth Perlmutter and Barbara Silver. They were a fun bunch of vibrant, engaged and spirited woman. They will be terribly missed but never forgotten. Jim Hamilton

Sending my deepest sympathy and condolences to Mrs Finkel. Sending much love& hugs. Dr Juddith Finkel was my favorite college professor. I didn't know she like myself was a Philadelphia native. She lived an amazing life and left behind a legacy. I will always remember her with great fondness.

Judy and I worked together for many years at WCU. We shared a common interest in multicultural education and politics. I consider her to have been my best friend at WCU. My husband Ernie and I spent many times together with Judy and Alan and later with just Judy. We will both miss her greatly. She was a magnificent woman!

I´ve known judy for only a few short years, but they were jampacked with memory making times. What an inspiration. We met through our mutual friend Barbara Silver. The laughter we shared is with me always. Judy`s spirit and vibe really motivated me In many ways as I segued from professional life into retirement. I´ll always love you, Judy. My condolences to your entire family. With sympathy, Laurel Grady

Dear Family, I was fortunate to work with Judith at the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History. She was an extraordinary colleague!

I am so sorry to hear of Judy's passing. She was wonderful, energetic and fun to be around as well as a terrific neighbor. Her passion for women rights was remarkable and contagious. She will be sorely missed.
