e was also called home ahead of her on May 6, 2008. Judy was born with a strong work ethic and would begin her working career by investing over 20 years in the produce department at Randall's. She next reached for her dream of owning and operating her own flower shop, H & H Florist, which brought Judy years of fruitful satisfaction until she finally began her last working stint with Hills & Dales, where she permanently retired from in 2006. In her free-time, Judy loved spending time with her family, especially her great-granddaughter, Sophia; who is quite possibly the only person on the planet she would even consider sharing her Gremlins with. When she wasn't spending time with family and friends, you could usually discover Judy trying her luck sitting at the quarter slots and waiting patiently for the lights and bells to signal another success. We are beyond sad today with the sudden loss of Judy from our lives. Her loving, kind and uniquely generous soul has surely left a void we will not be able to replace while we remain here; but we are definitely relieved to know that she is finally reunited with all of her family who've been called home ahead of her. Thank you Judy for all the beautiful love, joy and memories you leave behind!Those left to cherish Judy's memory includeher 5 children,
