Born on June 26, 1948 in Lansing, MI, Judith grew up to graduate from Waverly High School.
Judith is at peace now . She struggled a long time and paved a unique and challenging path.
Her curiosity led her to join the Navy Reserves in 1985 where she was a reservist for 8 years. After leaving General Motors, she had an opportunity to chase her dream of becoming an interior designer which led her to earning two associate degrees with honors at the Institute of Merchandise and Design. She was the first in her family to graduate college.
Judith loved to travel and considered Florida her second home. Her visit to Paris many years ago with her daughter left her loving anything and everything Paris for the rest of her life.

God looked around his garden
And found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He saw the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb.
So he closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered “Peace be thine”
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
