Judith was our neighbor in Phoenix for about 6 yrs. When she first moved in, she welcomed us with homemade brownies, and brought us delicious treats every Christmas. She was such a kind & loving soul. She gave each of my kids little trinkets of their choosing from her collection. They both still have them, some 4+ yrs later (they're 11 & 12 yrs old now).
I've only just now learned of Judith's passing. I tried to text her this photo of my daughter holding the little rose quartz bunny that Judith had given her years ago, and my text was returned. My heart sank, thinking the worst.
My kids & I were so fortunate to have known Judith & to call her our friend. Sending lots of love to her family & friends.

We were sisters in sorrow. She had so much joy in life and shared it easily, even though she herself suffered deeply. I love you and miss you my sister in spirit.

We lived in the same Condo complex that Judith and Paul did for 22 years. They were a wonderful, caring couple. Judith made beautiful jewelry which I have a couple of pieces of. A beautiful lady who will be missed by all.
