Judie worked as a Nurse’s Aide for St. Marys hospital for many years, as a Bus Contractor for St. Marys Schools for eighteen years, as well as cooking and waitressing and raising her children.

She loved playing cards, board games, going to the casino, binge-watching her favorite shows and playing Candy Crush.  She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.  She always put others first and would give you the shirt off her back.  She could strike up a conversation with any stranger. She will be greatly missed by a great number of people.  God gained the most beautiful Angel.
