Larry Judd Obituary

Larry Todd Judd
1964 - 2012
I've lost my 22 year battle with Hodgkin's disease. I, Larry Todd Judd, 48 of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, passed away peacefully surrounded by my wife and daughters in the wee morning hours of December 29, 2012.
Memorial services will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, January 5, 2012 at the Potter Funeral Chapel in Emmett. Burial will follow at a later time at the Sweet Cemetery.
I was born November 2, 1964 in Salt Lake City, Utah, a son to Leonard and Geraldine Judd. I grew up in Denver and as a teenager moved with my family to Kenilworth, Utah where I finished school. I proudly served a two year mission for my Church in Montana where I met many new friends. The Hodgkin's first was diagnosed at this time and it was shortly after, I met and married Nancy Riggs on November 28, 1993 in Boise, Idaho. It was at that time we moved to Bozeman, Montana, the love of my life; fishing and hunting were aplenty and I considered this "home". I was lucky enough to attend MSU (go Bobcats!). In 2000, we were fortunate enough to adopt our first daughter, Nina, from Beijing China. This was the first of many blessings I would receive in my short life. We relocated to the Boise area at this time and proceeded to adopt our second blessing, daughter Malia. At the same time I learned that my Hodgkin's had come back with a vengeance. We proceeded to China and upon our return; I underwent chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. I had plenty of good times while I worked as a sales rep. for ADT in Middleton before moving to Coeur d'Alene in 2009. By this time the complications from the many treatments had weakened my heart and lungs and the simple things became a struggle. I am at peace and comfortable in my Savior's arms now.
Those left behind include my wife, Nancy; two beautiful daughters and the apples of my eyes, Nina and Malia; my mother, Geraldine (LaRay) Greene; brother, Scott (Patti) Judd; three sisters, Lori (Joe) Brummer, Stephanie (Mark) Shull and Beth (Leon) Stewart and numerous nieces and nephews, in addition to my wife's family and many others whom I consider family.
I was preceded in death by my father, Leonard Scott Judd and niece, Audrey Brummer.
We request any donations be made to Hospice of North Idaho or the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

I will always have the fondest memories of Larry. I served with him for several months in Montana and I loved every minute of it. He could make me laugh like no other person could do. I miss our chats on the phone. God bless your family.

Nancy, Nina & Lelia,
Prayers for strenght, hope and courage for each of you in the days ahead. The ADT office here in Boise remembers you all with fondness. I still have Nina and Lelia's pictures on a shelf at my desk so I never forget you. May the days ahead be filled with good memories of good times with your husband and father.

Miss you Larry. You, Nancy, and the girls came into my life during a very rough time in my life and I could not have asked for better friends and neighbors. I can't begin to express how much you and your family have meant to me! All my love, Cheryl.
