Not sure what to say?

My mom was my hero. She would do anything for her family. She loved hard and enjoyed watching every White Sox, Bears and Notre Dame game. She tried to make every single sporting event that her grandkids played in and loved to be one of “the girls.” She loved to shop, go to the movies and go out to lunch. She was the glue that held our family together. I miss her but the memories that I have with her will stay with me forever. I love you mom.

Judy has always been the sweetest. I became her caregiver in May of 2024 when her & Ray first came to Heartis. I enjoyed all of our talks. She always told me jokes and made me smile even on my worst days. I’m going to miss her a lot.

Sincere condolences to Ray and family on the loss of your beloved wife and mom.
May all your memories comfort you.
From an Aquinite who graduated with Judy.
