To Kim and the entire family,
Wherever your mothers beautiful soul has been, the love she sewed will flower again and again and again. Love's never lost; and love never ends. You were all wonderful caregivers and brought her the dignity she so richly deserved. I pray that she meets my Carol, that they no-longer suffer from ALS and are the brightest spirits in the "Next Place".

Bob, Phyllis, Kim and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Judy was a beautiful person with so much inner and outer beauty. We recall our visit with her at Hospice and how her smile never left her face as she radiated the love of Christ in spite of what she was going through. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, may you find comfort in the peace that passes all understanding that only our Lord can give. Lovingly,The Bernie Ramon family

There is a beautiful song called "I Can Only Imagine" that says 'Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still? '. I bet I know what you did Aunt Judy! I love you and miss and I will keep you in my heart until were all together again.

When I read of Judy's passing I discovered Judy's Page which is such a wonderful tribute to her. I met Judy when she came to work at ACM and later saw her and Bob at MSU hockey games. The world has lost one of it's most honest and loving people. My condolences to her loving family....

Kim and family, we want you to know that you are in our prayers. ALS is indeed a horrible disease, but she's free now. She'll be waiting to greet you all again someday. You were so fortunate to have her in your life - as was she to have all of you in hers.

As I watched you struggle with this disease, I noticed that it never got the best of you--your innner Courage, Strength, Determination, Passion & Love still persevered and showed people how strong of a woman you were. I marveled at your ability to maintain your humor & your sense of dignity, even when you think it was taken from you. You will be mourned & missed by all who were special enough to be graced by your friendship & love. Your loving niece, Angie
