Steven Keith Judd

I just learned of Steve´s passing. Interesting enough, I too am a kidney cancer survivor. I lost one of my kidneys due to surgery. And by God´s grace, I´m still alive. I worked with Steve in Los Angeles, and we worked together on a Crime Impact Team in the 90´s. My memory of him was that he was a gentle giant of a man, with curly hair and a big smile, who loved law enforcement and serving an ungrateful society. He was a solid cop! Good man who always had your back! It´s been many years since...

Today marks 141 days since Steve left us. This coming Saturday, February 1 would be his 61st birthday. I still have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that he is truly not on this earth with us. I miss him so much...along with everyone who knew him. Birthday celebrations were always a big deal for us, and we loved showering each other with love and affection particularly on each other's birthday because we were so thankful that God brought us to each other, and I was grateful...

Steve was my best male friend, we had been friends and law enforcement partners for Decades on and off via law enforcement but always friends, he was the actual friend and good person you so rarely met in this life. I mean as in the kind of rare person who is there in worst- times, there is nothing Steve wouldn't do for a friend and he proved that more than once. I also know having worked with Steve undercover in the LA and Inland Empire Areas of Southern Ca. that Steve was not only a good...

We love and miss you Uncle Steve. We are so grateful for the experiences and memories we have with you, from Chicago Cubs games to chill nights in Anaheim playing golf and Catan or visiting Pasadena dive bars and getting the best advice on how to really live and love well. You will always hold a special place in our minds and hearts and this world is not the same without you. We love you. -April, Dan and Lennon Aran
