Scott and Diana:
We don't have contact information that enables a more personal message, but want you to know of our sorrow when learning of Judy's passing. Some of our most treasured memories of the early years at Fairfield Union revolve around making ice cream together with Tom & Judy when you lived in Bremen, near FUMC. They were early and close friends, and both helped us in many ways, both personally and professionally, in addition to offering their constant friendship.
May God sustain you during this trying time.

Diana and Scott and family,
Your mother was one of the sweetest, most loving ladies, I have ever met. She was a Godly woman in every respect. Whether it be at the piano, or in a store with her oxygen on, she always had a smile and an encouraging word. My prayers are with you. Please accept my sincerest sympathy.

Your mother was one of the nicest ladies I've known. I loved seeing her and visiting with her at FCA. She always spoke to me and she was so proud of her family. She will be missed.

Judy and Tom were long-time friends through the years - our children grew up sharing many good times together. Stand bys for such good times were Tom and Judy, Ralph and Betty Foltz, and us. We had some great Bible studies at The Hollow - "DonDoRo Acres". It was owned by brother-in-law Don Stuart - a place of fellowship and many wonderful family get togethers. Over the years, families growing, family and friends' deaths, and miles separating many, those wonderful times diminished. But the memories created are treasured by all who were Blessed to be a part of them. The years take their toll, but for the Scriptural Faithful, Eternity awaits. What a glorious day that will be when once again, we can all meet there and be together again. Our deepest Sympathy with Prayers for comforting strengths in the coming days for Scott, Diana, and their family ... and for their Peace as only our Father Yahweh God, can give. May the Blessings of our loving Heavenly Father remain with you.
