So sorry for your loss Joyce and Jean. You will all be in our prayers. May you have a blessed Christmas.

Joyce & Jeanie,
Blessings sent your way in memory of your Mom. Aunt Judy held a special place in many hearts for all she did, her faith, and love for family and friends. Peace and prayers to you.

Sorry for your loss Joyce and Jean. Aunt Judy was a hard worker and will be missed by many people. It has been a tough year for all of you. May you have a blessed Christmas season and a joyful New Year.

Judy is very missed at our parish when she went to live with Joyce in Little Falls—she took care of our church and preparation for the Eucharist with much pride and expectations that it be done RIGHT! So we looked to her for many things to how “to do” right the first time!! Glad to say I could call her a friend and she will be missed as she already had been. Rest now Judy from your labors of being God’s servant! God Bless Joyce and Jean for taking such good care of her!!

So very sorry for your loss Joyce.

Joyce, so sorry for your loss. She must have been quite a woman!
