Judy McEvoy

She was born to Herbert and Mildred Seale Heidemann in Brenham, Texas. There, she was baptized and confirmed at St. John’s Lutheran Church (Prairie Hill). After graduating from Brenham High School, she attended Blinn College and the University of Houston. Later, she would earn her real estate license.

Judy moved to Houston, Texas in 1963 to attend school and work at T.J. Bettes Company. In 1968, she began working for Gerald Hines Interests, starting out at the Galleria location. This is when she became interested in real estate and knew that was the career for her. After moving to The Woodlands, she joined RE/MAX. She loved her colleagues and worked until she became ill in December.

Judy was a member of the Houston Board of Realtors, Texas Association of Realtors/National Association of Realtors, Houston Association of Realtors (2002 Board of Directors) and the Women’s Council of Realtors. She was extremely honored to be awarded the 2008 Business Woman of the Year.

Judy was an active member of Christ Church United Methodist in The Woodlands. Her faith in God was very important to her. Ethics and doing the right thing were always front and center, in her personal life as well as her career. She had a special place in her heart for the military, and loved sending care packages to the soldiers. She loved donating to the Salvation Army at Christmas.

Judy loved spending time with family during the holidays and special occasions. She never missed a birthday and a card with a heartfelt note. Our hearts are broken with her sudden passing.

Everyone Should Have An "Aunt Judy"

Everyone should have an Aunt Judy.

Birthdays and special occasions, you were always there.

A birthday card, handwritten, with loving care.

Always a lady, manners were a must.

It was "yes ma'am" and "thank you", don't make me fuss!

We grew up watching "That Girl" on TV.

That is what Aunt Judy was to me.

A girl from the country that moved away.

For she was an example, hard work does pay.

All though we didn't see each other every day,

You were just a phone call away.

Comforting words, inspiring stories,

How did this busy lady have no worries?

I'm off to church, you would say

Have to sing in the choir today.

What an honor it was for me,

to be with you at your time of need,

Your strength was unbelievable,

you never complained.

I will never forget your caring way, and how we prayed on that last day.

Your eyes said you were ready,

peaceful in every way.

And on that night, Jesus took you away.

I Love You Aunt Judy... your Niece Cheryl
