    Mary, Bill, and family,
    I am so sorry to hear this difficult time for you, with the loss of your beloved sister. Although I never met her, I have heard how sweet, kind, and loving she was to everyone. Her tribute echoes and confirms what a wonderful person she was. Praying for all of her family at this time.

  4. I worked with Judy many years and even after she retired she would call me and talk to me. She would always wanted to know what was going on at work and how everyone was doing. I know she will be so happy to see her mom and dad again. in Heaven. I know she missed playing the organ at her church. I am sorry I will not be able to attend the services on Wednesday but you will be in my prayers for your loss.
