Judy - I will always be grateful for you in my life. Times when I needed you, you were there. We have lived a distance away but I've always felt close to you, and you were just a call away. I can't imagine how this world and our family will be without you. I wish only eternal rest for you. You will be forever in my heart and soul. When I look at the stars, I see you as the brightest of them all. I love you and will forever. May our eyes sparkle again in memory of you!

Judy and I met in Fl. 1997. We were both thrilled to be from the same place. We had many good times and shared patients, especially Dominick. I am devastated over my friend's passing, as I was to see her Dec 10. My only consolation is that she is with Dom now. I am so sorry that Jill, Kristin, and Ben have to go through this pain. Our Moms would have chatting when we all got together. I will miss you my friend, my nurse buddy.

Judy definitely packed her life full of love, happiness, family, friends, and fun. She was a wonderful to everyone she knew. I'm sad to see her go, but so thankful I got to know her.

Judy, you are missed so much! It still doesn't seem real. You were such an important person to so many of Jill's friends, myself included. Thinking of you always.

My mother was the most amazing person. I loved her and will continue to love her forever. I think of her everyday and would love just to talk to her again. I know that most of my good qualities come from her, and the wonderful person she was. I know most of the time children don't know how wonderful their parents are. I did. I loved spending time with my mom and texting her everyday. She was my best friend as well as my therapist. I can't imagine that my children will never get to know her, and i won't ever get to tell her about good times or bad. Honestly she is my everything. I know i will never be alright and I will miss her everyday but I also know how unbelievably lucky I was to have the mommy I got. No one could ask for someone better. And I know that she will watch over me, and my siblings, taking care of us in whatever way she can. I love you my Judy so much and I always always will.

My Mother was the best strongest person in the entire world. Anyone who knew her or had the pleasure of meeting her would know that. I am a better person because of her. I am sorry for her mother, her sisters and brothers and my brother and sister to have to go through this loss. I am sorry for my dad because he spent more time with her than probably anyone else and now he can not. I am sorry for her family and friends who got to know her and spend her life with her. I know how much everyone loved her, and how much I loved her. The pain will never go away, but I hope she lives on through all of us. The world is not the same without her. Nothing is the same without her. But she knew how much she was loved, and she fought until she could not any more. I miss her more than words can say, I miss her more and more everyday. I have the best memories in the world because of her, and no one else will ever be more important to me. I love you Mommy. I send love to all our family, and friends. Please let Judy live on forever in our hearts.

dear Judy. I will miss you greatly.

Judy was my sisters best friend. They traveled together to baseball and football games all decked out for years. When Becky would get home, we would laugh till we cried reliving the adventures they shared. I only got to know her a little but in that time I came to appreciate her warmth and humor. I will miss her. Julie Lynch
