Judy was my loving mother-in-law. I affectionately called her Mama Judy. She accepted me into her family with all the love a person could have that first time I met her, Papa George, her middle son David and his wife Donna on a Thanksgiving in 2009. I grew to love this family dearly, she was a great mother-in-law to me at all times. She loved shopping and I did stick to her like glue but you know what it was FUN!. She always was giving me advice, showing me how to do things, and just loved her interaction with others around her. She was the matriarch of this family, the glue to hold everyone together, the one that you would sit down and share almost everything and she was not to shy to share too. Even though one divorced from a son, one still have a fond and loving relationship formed with the extended family. I was there for weddings, celebrations like their 50th Wedding Anniversary, I was the one that took that family shot and now it will be something everyone will remember. Judy said a beautiful speech at my own parents 60th wedding anniversary and thanked me for being a part of her family. Ties of love never die, never get broken, even if your not a part of the family, they are still a part in my heart and soul. Mama Judy, I wished I had known, I would have called you, stopped in to see you, pay my last respects, tell you how much I love you. I will miss that smile, the sense of humor and that love from a mother, not an in-law but a mother. God bless you dear Mama Judy.
