| Judy goofing around in her teens. |
| Judy, Linda, (another niece ) Judy's daughter Debi and I am holding her. We even had the same dress, but mine was blue and her's was red. |
| Debi, who loved and cared for Judy so lovingly for many years. She was a devoted daughter. |
| One of the last pictures I have of Judy..... always a joy to be with........ she was my dearest companion in life, how lucky I was to have had a soul mate. |

| She is gone. I do not remember a time that she was not in my life. We played together as babies~ she is my first memories of joy. This relationship lasted a life time, and we still played together as old ladies. This chain of memories spans sixty-one years of life and it has been broken. Her life was so closely twined into mine, I can not find a memory in my childhood that doesn't include her. I had recently said, "It is so strange to be with a person who could with a word, instantly awaken a spontaneous child within me and bring me carefree laughter." A very precious part of myself has died today. She is with my daughter now, and they wait for me together. I know she would have liked the words below. But for now, I will stand at her grave and weep and she will understand. |
| Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow, I am the sunlight on the ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. Death is but crossing the worlds, As friends do the seas; We live in one another still. Author Unknown |

| Last year Judy had begin to write to a mother who had lost a child, who is a friend of mine. Since Judy's death my friend has written this for Judy. |
| A Treasured Friend You are gone, my friend, from this earthly world. Beyond the clouds of heaven's gate. But you are not forgotten, as you are a treasured friend. I never met you face to face, only by e-mail on the Internet. You gave me these special gifts while you were here on earth. These treasured gifts were Compassion Encouragement Hope Joy Laughter Love Smiles and Understanding. Thank You my treasured friend. Thank you my friend for these beautiful gifts from you to me. I treasured you and this friendship, It was a short friendship because God called you home, to his fold. I miss you dearly my treasured friend, I miss your friendship and your treasured gifts. But even in death you are my treasured friend, I miss and love you very much. You left your heart prints in this earthly world, In our hearts as you will always be. My forever treasured friend. written with love by Gypsy 7/20/2000 |
