Albin Joseph "A. J." Judice Jr.

I’m sure glad AJ was on the radio at ol I for the Cajun music show
He was a real entertainer. All his family should be proud. I didn’t know when he to the great bayou beyond
Just saw his obit because I wanted to mention him to somebody in a text and I never knew how to spell Judice so I asked the google out loud and there he is!!!
One of my favorite quotes of AJ was “thank you Lord, for putting da Cajuns and da crawfish in the same place”
Wish I could meet some of his people. Ben Smith

I will always have great memories of Mr Judice visiting TJ during the pep rallies when I attended TJ in the 80's. Whenever I visit home, the store on 7th street is one of the first places I stop for my boudain. As a girl growing up in PT Arthur, we rode our bikes to the grocery store and he would always greet everyone. He was definitely a part of my creole culture growning up in Port Arthur.

To the Judice Family:
It was such a wonderful pleasure getting together with the family after so many years. AJ was indeed the most remarkable and unforgetable individual we have had the pleasure knowing. Our families developed a friendship that was unique in so many ways. He filled all our lives with fun and laughter and made us all feel so important. I shall never forget the trips we made together, especially the one to Utila by private plane ............. Not enough space availble for details, but the family has shared the stories many time.
Thanks for making us a part of your lives. AJ's memories will live on.
May your hearts be blessed by the memories of this wonderful and unforgetable individual.
Al & Michelle, thanks so much for your generous hospitality
With love and prayers,

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived. Aunt Lois & Family I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle A J's passing,my deepest sympathy to you all.It was great getting to spend some time with A J & everyone this past summer and remembering old times.

Mr, AJ will surely be missed. Our family was blessed to have know such a wonderful man. Ron J. Judice's family (Loreauville,LA and East Texas)

JUST SENDING MUCH LOVE TO THE FAMILY.

A.J. was the grandfather of a dear friend of mine. I have many fond memories of Papa Judice, including our television debut racing crawfish. He certainly lived life to the fullest- and touched hundreds of hearts along the way. He will be missed. I am sorry for your loss.

This man surely put Port Arthur, Texas on the map and will be greatly missed. He loved his Cajun Culture. His son Larry and I were both in the 82nd Airborne but not at the same time as I am older. My Army time was 1956-1958.

I am so sorry for the loss of Mr. Judice. He is such a large part of my memories of living in Port Arthur. He let me play the washboard with the band. Granted I had a couple of beers in me but what fun. He was such a cherished part of the community. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Mr. Judice is playing those chimes in heaven now.

Iam so sorry to hear that Mr Judice has passed away. It is a loss to the whole of southeast Texas and to his many friends and family.I am proud to have known him and always held him in the highest of respect.He will be missed by all.

My sympathy to the Judice Family. God bless you all.

A.J. was a one of a kind person that was sent to everyone of us to love,have fun and most of all he never meet a stranger he was the most amazing and generous man I have ever meet.

My sympathy to the Judice family. Mr. Judice was a wonderful part of my childhood. I will forever remember the rides he gave Karen and me in the dune buggy. He was always so exciting and fun to be around. Memories kept in my heart.

Larry, Al, Debbie, From ST.Marys to now, AJ will always be the Boss Cajun of Port Arthur. Deepest condolences

To Lois, Al, Larry, Kevin, Debbie, and Karen: Please accept my condolences on the passing of A.J. The loss right now is very hard; however, in time that hurt will turn into smiles and laughter when you think about A.J. It brings a smile to my face when I picture A.J. arriving at the Pearly Gates, seeing Aunt Larry, Uncle Tabin, Grandma, Pop (Regina and Nixon) and Daddy (Carl) sitting at a table full of food just waiting to sit down and talk with him.

With Love,
Stephanie

What a great and wonderful man Mr. Judice was. Thanks for the great memories I have as a kid (40 years ago +) visiting the store, the wonderful aromas, foods and talking to him. Also many thanks for everything he did for the community. It is amazing at how many folks he touched in those 80 years. He was in the simplist and most important terms "A Good Man". Doesn't get any better than that. Prayer of Thanks.

Lois,you and AJ were my second family. I will always remember the good times. Our thoughts are with you and the family.
Love always
Tommy and Peggy Wells

My Sympathy to the Judice Family.

Some of my fondest memories are with A.J. and my late brother in law Wade Granger. No matter what A.J. was called on to do if it had value to it he was there. I Loved and appreciated him greatly.
Somehow I knew the last visit I had with him on the bayou a year ago would probably be my last.
Blessings To All The Family

A J was just the best. We traded at Judice's on 7th for so long when I was growing up. He will be a special Angel. He visited with my Aunt in the Cayman Islands with his mom years ago. Nancy Watler

He is an Icon of the Cajun Lands. May God be with you all, at this time of loss.

Dear Family of A.J.,
Please know our heart felt sympathy and prayers are with you.
I will never forget my childhood memories of the walks to the market on 7th St. with my Papa (my grandfather, Jack Comfort) on Saturday mornings. What a treat, the aroma would make a full stomach hungry. The atmosphere made me feel like I was in Abbyville.
His smile and thick cajun accent wrapped around you and made you feel welcome.
With a quick reminder, "Jack & Chloe Comfort, Katie Lou Comfort Baker & Mel." He knew you & your family, where ever he saw you.
He will be missed by all he touched.
Becky Baker Thomas

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.
