Dear Neighbors,
It is with a heavy heart that I write. A whole week, and we didn't even know about your mom, just knew that we hadn't seen her out with the dogs or in and out as we always do. I feel terrible that we are so caught up in our lives that we haven't been good neighbors. We have so loved watching the house be so lovingly restored by all of you and shared your mom's pride in it's beauty being unearthed. We were shocked to get a call tonight telling us about your mom's...

Sorry with sympathy and parys to you and all your family.

My condolences to the entire family. I (as Santa Claus) first met Judy as a Parent Teacher Organization volunteer "elf" at Santa's annual visit to Glenwood School. Judy and the other PTO Moms, Ringles, Jingles, and Winkles, accompanied me from room to room handing out Christmas presents to all the kids.
Judy and her fellow elves could never figure out how Santa came to recognize and address each of their children; a little clue from each teacher was my secret.

I am not sure what I remember most, your mom ironing my hair back in the 8th grade (how we hated our curly hair back in the times when everyone had long straight hair), or the wonderful apple pie she brought over when she came to the house for some wood. Just last week, Steve wondered if your Mom needed more wood....I think he wanted a pie.

Our prayers are with you and your family.

My condolences to Judy's family. I will surely miss stopping by to visit on my evening walks. My friends, sister and I will all miss her.

Jada,Jess and Mark,
I only had the chance to know your mom through Steph, your mom even though I knew her for a short time, she was the most wonderful person I ever met. The one thing I regret is never taking her open invitation to sit on the porch and enjoy a glass of wine with her, but she knew how much my work took time from me.Judy was a great inspration to all who knew her, even if it was for a short time that I knew her. Steph loved your mom so much. Jess you have been a great...

I will always remember all of the time we shared watching our boys grow up and working on the Glenwood Pto.We had a lot of fun.I will miss her strength,courage,and wonderful smile.
