I am sorry to hear of Judy's passing. She was a good friend. I remember the marathon cribbage games we had so often.
My thoughts and prayers to her family. I know she loved all of you so much.

My mother was the most amazing person I have ever known. She was my best friend, and I will never be the same without her! She was a truly selfless individual and was there for every one of us. I will always LOVE you Mom!
