taken from those who loved her far too soon.
Judy was the middle daughter of the late George and China Burroughs, both of Knoxville.

After completing residencies in pathology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the Virginia Commonwealth University Health Systems, Judy practiced medicine in Tennessee, Kentucky,
Mississippi, Arkansas, Ohio, and West Virginia for over 50 years. Judy was a devoted doctor and caregiver; a beloved sister, daughter, and aunt; a kind and generous friend; a world traveler; a talented artist, chef, and gardener; a voracious reader; and a lover of animals and nature.
Judy is preceded in death by her parents, George and China; brothers, Philip, Bill, and Paul Burroughs.
Judy is survived by her sisters, Anita Van de Vate of Knoxville and Shirley Wilson (Raymond) of
Seymour; brother, Edward Burroughs (Loretta) of Knoxville; special friend, Richard Bash and
