He taught science at Woodridge High School until 1980. Bob then started his own video and photography business who's clients included Alladin Industries, U.S. Ceramics, Key Bank, GE Lighting and a 20 year relationship with Goodrich Aerospace. His most recent interests revolved around the horse farm he and his wife Mary established in 1988. He was also a certified equine therapist and was deeply involved in the Medina County Juvenile Drug Court equine assisted therapy program.
Preceded in death by parents, Elisabeth K. and Robert H. Sr.; he is survived by wife, Mary Waickman; son, Blair Judson; sister, Patricia Lindamood; and brother, Jon K. Judson.

I am very sorry for your loss. Did your husband ever shoot photographs for the Puppeteers of America? I am writing a book on the history of the Center for Puppetry Arts, Atlanta, and I think we have some of his photos in our archives. If Robert was involved with the Puppeteers of America, would you please contact me at [email protected]

Dear Mary,
I'm so thankful for the twenty years I knew Bob. He was such a great mentor as well as friend. There is a very special photo that HE IS IN (not that he took - but his camera took) of the first Goodrich Paris Air Show Team in 2001 after we changed our name from BFGoodrich Aerospace. It has a special spot in my office and always will. I'll remember him always.
God bless,
Sherry Cole Bergstrom

Mary,
Your husband was a great science teacher because he treated his students as young humans who like to discover things rather than just dumb kids who needed the credit hours.
He instilled in me a passion for photography that led me to take up film/video as a profession! I owe much of my success to him!

Mary:
I'm so sorry for your loss. I know Bob was suffering more than anyone should have to, so I know he's in a better place. Leslie Reynolds kept me up to date on Bob's condition over the last several months. I worked with Bob at Goodrich when he first started doing videos for the company. He was always a pleasure to be around and a practical joker.
I know he will be sorely missed, but please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and his family.

My condolence to the family. Mr. Judson was a fun teacher - we used to call him "carrot-top". He caught me smoking outside of his classroom - and didn't turn me in :) RIP Mr. Judson
