Judy, Judy Joyce, "Trixie", "The Ranch Manager", Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma or Friend, no matter who she was to each one of us, there was one constant that remained. Judy was a high-spirited, full of life individual that could fill a room with laughter and joy. After many years of service as a Nursing Home Administrator, she retired at the age of 55 to enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Judy never met a stranger. Most would say that she had a "gift of gab". She truly loved people and had the unique ability to connect with so many. Judy thoroughly enjoyed spending time with friends. Whether that be shopping, gardening, at monthly card parties, dancing, on gambling trips to Louisiana or working as an estate auction sale, she fully embraced the special times and memories that were shared. Judy cherished her family, especially her Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. She took pleasure in attending their sporting events, volunteering for events at their schools, sharing her gift of sewing or simply just providing a shoulder to lean on. Her love for traditions, specifically at Christmas and Easter will always be treasured. Judy will be greatly missed by all who knew and were blessed by her, but her love for family, friends and the Lord will continue. "I love you to the moon and back. I love you a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck" Rest in Peace.
