Judy was a bright light in this world, and such a happy warrior for the Lord. She was a complete go-getter in the cause of life but with the kindest, most positive, and friendliest spirit. Our hearts are broken for us all, but especially for Kenny and her family who she loved with all her heart. May God hold you close.
Judy was truly a beautiful light in this world! She and Alice were amazing Food Coordinators for Jefferson City Marriage Encounter for many years. What I remember most is her beautiful, warm smile!
Judy was a true treasure. Judy continued purchasing from my family business, Capitol Rubber Stamp, Co, after She purchased Samco Office Supply. She and Mary were helpful and hardworking customers to us. Later, when Judy bought my family business she became a true friend. She will be deeply missed.
Judy was an example of how we should all live. Looking out for those that could not speak for themselves. Giving unconditionally for many causes. I will miss her greatly and her thoughtful nature. To the family – I am sorry for your loss. God promises us everlasting life if we follow Him and I am confident that Judy is with Him today!
I am sore to hear of the passing of Judy. She was always so kind to me and to my family. She was such a warrior for everything pro life. I pray she is greeted in heaven by all the babies she prayed for. God Bless Kenny and all her family.
Gary and Judy Arnold. I know Judy is smiling and looking toward us from her sign up place in the heavens. Her smile and laugh and encouragement will be with us always. Amen.
