I met Judy when I was a freshman at Nazareth. She was a Junior, assisted as my "big sister." I did not have contact after college until a few years ago when we started to interface at many social justice events. We both attended ROCLA gatherings. Judy invited me as her guest to several Madrigalia concerts and I learned she was instrumental in the group´s founding. Rest in peace, dear Judy! I hope you are hearing the music of the heavenly choir or maybe you are leading it!
With my prayers for you and your family!
Phyllis Tierney, SSJ

I had the pleasure of meeting Judy when she briefly lived at The Landing at Brighton. She was very friendly and we shared a nice conversation. May God Bless her and give her Peace.
