Remembering dear Judy today.What a shining light she was! So talented! The epitome of "joi de vivre"!

Thinking of you today, dear Judy.

Remembering you, dear Judy!

More thoughts about Judith: shared trips to Italy, France, Spain, and Alaska (a folk-dancing boat trip including her mom); a musical with her mom and my folks; setting up the exhibit at Beth El: "From Hester Street to Highland Park;" playing racquetball; meeting regularly for birthday dinners with two mutual friends; dinner at my place with David and you girls and my folks; plays, concerts. So many memories, cherished. it was a great privilege to know your mom; she is still with me.

Dear Judy and I go back many years. I was so saddened to hear of her passing. She was indeed, a bright, shining light.

Thinking of and remembering dear Judy at this time.

Sending my love to Judiths daughters and extended family. Love always, Steve Shay

Just found out. I am so saddened by this terrible news. I knew Judy and David from "way back". We recently renewed our friendship and pledged to see each other more frequently. Judy was so talented, sparkly,enthusiastic, warm, genuine. She was a treasure and will be sorely missed.
