"Judy was a kind, caring, competent professional and a wonderful friend. She was full of energy, enthusiasm, and compassion. I will miss our lunches and chats about work, family and life in general. Judy\'s joy regarding the marriage of her kids and the births of her grandchildren knew no bounds. She touched my heart. I will remember her always and the example she set for others to follow. My deepest condolences to you, John, and to your family."
"John, I have had the pleasure and privilege of having you and Judy as friends for over 33 years, and I am so saddened by her loss. I always thought Judy was one of the classiest people I knew, which is in part why she was so loved and admired by all who knew her, both personally and professionally. An even bigger part of what made her so special was how much she was so evidently and adoringly loved by you. The two of you were to be envied for your devotion to one another. I know all too well the feeling of emptiness that comes with losing the other half of yourself, and my thoughts and prayers are with you, Alex, Erin and your grandsons during this most difficult time. I am sure your love of family will provide the strength you all need to get through. I only hope that you will consider me one of those close friends who is there to help you as well."
"John, I am so sorry for the loss that you and your family are feeling with Judy gone, but believe that you feel some peace and joy in happy memories of the life you shared. I know that you and Judy were different -- yet soul mates -- and how much you loved each other just from talking with you. I am glad to have known her and am thinking of you and the rest of your family. Take care."
