Don,
I am so very sorry. You and Judy had a long wonderful life together.
I think of you two quite often. Please take care of youself and find
peace knowing that she’s in a much better place and still keeping
an eye on you.
Don, I was shocked to hear of Judy’s passing. I am so thankful that we had a special visit at your home in early spring. I loved to listen to Judy tell stories of all her world travels as a young independent woman. Swim class could never be the same to me without her. I loved her dearly. You have my deepest sympathies.
