Judy was one of the finest individuals that I have had the pleasure to know. She was a patient and compassionate mentor. I know she is shaking things up in heaven.

I remember so very well serving with Judith on the Santa Maria-Bonita School Board. What a bright, caring, articulate board member she was. She was battling health issues as I remember, and was always so courageous and positive. She had very firm opinions and could argue them articulately. My thoughts and prayers are with you. A great lady.
