We knew Judy since 1969. Lee and Judy used to hang together while she was being courted by Fred, and we visited back and forth between our homes after we married. Judy was fun to be with and loved being around people she knew and meeting new friends. We kept in touch during all the years, and could always count on a call to catch up or just to say "Hi". We never had better or closer friends than Fred and Judy. We will miss her wit, smile and chats and will keep her memory in our hearts and minds. Judy, rest In Peace and make the angels laugh, as only you can.
We are so saddened at loss of dear Judy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. With love, Dale and Mark, Ron, Josh and Hersha, Brandon and Tess
Deepest sympathies for your loss. Our thoughts are with you during this very difficult time.
My sincerest condolences to Fred, Heather, and all who loved Judy. I have fond memories of visiting her and family in Lethbridge with my parents and siblings when I was young and I had the pleasure of seeing Judy and Fred in Ottawa later as an adult. Judy was always so kind and had such a warm and welcoming smile.
So sorry to hear about Judy. She was a good friend to our mom Vicky. Sincere Sympathy to Fred And Family. The Linn Family.
We have had the pleasure of knowing Judy for about 13 years. Never have I met a more kind and loving person. It will be hard going to see Fred to pay our rent and not having a pleasant conversation about how my wife and dogs are doing. We will truly miss her, she was one in a million
Sending our deepest condolences to the family. Joan and John Cockerline
All your pain has gone away. Sorry I never called you back. Will miss you lots, Kiddo.
