My aunt Judy was a very special person. She was always there for the family, and remained a good friend to my mother, Edwina, her former sister-in-law, over the years. My favorite thing when visiting Butte was to grab Pork Chop John's sandwiches to eat at their kitchen table, visiting with them and whatever other family was around. Judy will be missed. Scotty, I will be by with pork chops next visit!

Went to Butte High with this very sweet, caring person.
She planned so many Butte High Reunions for classes 56 and 57 each one more enjoyable than the last! You gave us the gift of memories, priceless. Thank you Judy.
