Judy was a close friend of mine during our elementary years at Flagg Street School in Worcester. She was a wonderful friend that I was fortunate to reconnect with later in life. May she Rest In Peace now that she is reunited with the love of her life....her lovely mother! My heartfelt condolences to all of her siblings.
