What a precious memory Judy provided as she lived her life so selflessly. I know of Judy's goodness through visits I made to Tucson to my friend Pat who taught with Judy. We shared many a holiday, fun times and meals together. Because we have loved, we grieve realizing that what our hearts once shared we will never lose. Rest in peace, dear Judy. Peace and condolences to Emil and family and friends.

I first met Judy in 7th grade when she moved to Centralia, ILL from Carbondale. We remained best friends from then until her recent death. We visited each other as often as we could since I continued to live in MO/IL and she made her life in AZ. We loved to visit Tucson and we loved Emil when we met him also. Judy was a wonderfall friend, teacher, wife, mother, and grandmother with her family being her first priority. I loved Judy and will miss her terribly along with so many others. Our deepest sympathy and prayers go out to her family. Linda(Langin) and Chuck Cox

So sad to hear the news. I loved working with Judy. I first met her when she was a long term sub for kindergarten at Lineweaver. We loved having Judy in our classrooms. She was very kind, caring, and patient. She always spoke proudly of her family. I will miss her. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
