My mother Deborah Sloan best friend Judy Finstad

I met Mum Judy on my first trip to the States in 1990, about 6 months after I lost my own mum.
The first time that I met her she welcomed me to Reno and then into her home, I had come to Reno with her daughter Diane
Mum Judy welcomed me into her home and open her heart to me I will never forget how beautiful she was her sense of humour, so well dressed and just a beautiful woman.
Mum Judy went to a lot of trouble and organised with Diane to have a dinner at her home, I met...

Dear Bob And Diane and family,

Ron and I are very saddened by Judy's passing. and want to extend our sympathies to all of you.
Judy was a wonderfaul person and we had many good times together with her and Larry, Fishing and doing many things together.
About a month ago I tried to call Judy to have a visit because it had been awhile since we had talked or e mailed but no one answered the phone and then I wasn't able to call again sice I have been very busy helping my 91 year old...

Judy and 3 other gals & I chumbed around in school. When I married and left Escondido I saw the gals only a couple of times. Judy and I corresponded at Christmas and E-mail once in a while. I am the only one left of the group.
I remember when we were in grammer school and Judy came to spend the night. We lived on a ranch and she got scared and cried until Mom took her back home. Judy was always a real beauty and I am regretful I did not get to know her more over the years.

We were so glad to have been able to see Judy just a few weeks before her passing. She was my first sister-in-law. I will always remember her grace and charm and the value she placed on keeping connected to our family even after she and Dean divorced. I'm only sorry we didn't make an effort to see her more often after she moved to Reno.

I only met Judy a couple of times, once staying at her house when Cameron was a baby. She was always a very classy lady. I know she will be missed.

When Judy married my brother, I was so glad to have such a sweet sister-in-law. I'm just sorry that we couldn't have spent more time together as we grew older. Bob and Diane, sorry for your loss.

Judy always said that I gave her the first ride on the handlebars of my
bicycle and her first horseback ride on the horses I rode to school occasionally and tied up East of their house on 5th street in Escondido. Escondido, class of 1952.

I met Judy in High School, and was always in awe of her grace and beauty! She was truly a lady! I am forwarding this page to our classmates who all are saddened by her death.
