  • Judy & I had so many great times together at the Sturgis Rallys here in South Dakota. I loved her like my sister and have been trying to get in touch with her and just found this. I would love if anyone could give Ray my Phone # for him to call me. I remember many phone calls of her telling me how blessed she was to have him in her life and I just wanted to reach out and tell him how very sorry I am to hear of her passing. She was one of the Kindest Ladies I knew . A heart of GOLD for sure and a Smile that never ended. My heart is crushed to know she is gone, yet I know her love for God was HUGE and sure she is in -Heaven with her Mother that she missed so dearly. My Phone # is 605-381-1987 if anyone can get in touch with Ray that may read this or find me on Face Book in Whitewood, SD. The very town I met her at, I am living in. I will always miss you Judy, your Smile & Our laughs together ................. - Posted by: Trudy Hill (Good Friend) on: Jan 04, 2017

  • I was saddened to hear of Judy's passing. I did not know her well but she would brighten my day when she would come to Cochrane and visit our store. A lovely lady. Brenda - Posted by: Brenda Spanier () on: Jun 08, 2016

  • Dearest Ray, Linda and families, The pure joy and love that Judy carried with her each day while she was here is a testament to her connection with Christ. I will miss our conversations and her ways of sharing her personal stories. Judy was our Realtor professionally, but after 10 years became a real friend. Through highs and lows in life we re-connected off and on and it was never about a 'deal' or an 'investment' but rather what was happening in our lives. Judy became a counsellor, friend, and mentor to many I believe she met in her career as a professional realtor. I personally think she missed her calling as a minister, but found her voice and service in life anyway. In the 25 years I knew Judy I can say that I trusted her judgement and I treasured her, and I always looked forward to visiting her. Both Mitch and I had the pleasure of knowing Judy these past 15 years together, and as a couple adored her ways and her smile and warmth as a person. We are so happy to have known Judy and will treasure her memory forever. Michele & Mitch - Posted by: Michele & Mitch (Friend & Client) on: Nov 09, 2015
