Such a lovely lady who always made me and my family feel like we lived next door to each other. Sadly taken too early.

Slowly I am accepting this awful reality, I will never see or speak with my soul sister on this earth again. I miss you beyond words Judy. You are all around me every day, a tune on the radio, a hummingbird in the backyard, the crystals hanging in the sun..you are there. I love you my beautiful friend.
Always & forever
