Sherrie and Randy,
My condolences to both of you. My goodness, earth will miss one of it’s finest citizens. Bless her heart. I hope to attend the service.
Randy & Sherrie –
I LOVED your mom – she was such a fantastic, wonderful woman and will be missed.
Much love to you and your families.
What a classy lady — she always put together Ward Docials and cultural events. I remember thatshe taught us it was ok to clap in the chapel — any time other than sacrament meeting:) Condolences to your family from ours.
We will forever be grateful to Judy for being the first to get to our 4 year old son when he fell into the water between their boat and the dock!! Very scary moment for us. Thank you again, Judy. We loved her sense of humor and many talents. We are so sorry for your loss, Randy, Barbarba, Sherrie and families. Dick and Cecil McCann
Sister Quinton was my role model. I love her sweetness,
Her smile and kindness always makes me feel welcome in Church. Unfortunately our Ward was splited but I will always remember her friendship.
May the peace God gives sustain your family during this difficult time. Lean on one another as the days ahead become too hard to bear alone. Share your memories, they will be a source of joy. Seeing the promises in God’s Word the Bible will help you to gain strength and fortify your hearts, granting you comfort. (2 Thessalonians 2:16,17; jw.org)
Great lady who almost singlehandedly kept CLO/SMT alive during some trying times. I was privileged to be on the CLO Board with Judy for several years. She will be missed. RIP.
