To Judy's Family and friend Donna Strand, I worked with Judy at Brett's while I was attending Mankato State College (1965-1969) and we had good times at the Century Club in North Mankato after hours! Judy was always willing to help and answer my questions about bookkeeping, etc. As Florence Sperra was steaming newly arrived clothing, Judy and I would remark about the styles. Donna and Judy were close friends that I enjoyed working with....they were always ready for a bit of fun! My sympathy to all of you......memories help to ease the hurts of loss. Sincerely, Sharon (Olson) Sturm.
