Steve,
My heart is so heavy for your loss. Please know that Bev and I and many at Hope Church are praying for you and your family. Please also know that I am always available to listen. I have been blessed to have you in my work life but more importantly you are a blessing to me personally.
Psalm 23 1-3 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pasture, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Psalm 34:18“The Lord is near to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit “
I am so very sorry for your loss. I remember Judy fondly for hers (and Steve’s) support at Annies Ark. She always had a smile when she came to get the children even after a long day of work. Her love of her family was so evident to all who knew and loved her. My prayers for your comfort will continue as you walk this difficult road.
Much love
Anne
Dear Steve and family,
I am so sorry to hear of Judy’s passing. We worked together many years ago at Harland. She was a wonderful person with a deep love of family. We hadn’t seen each other in a very long time, but she was never too far from my thoughts. I’m thinking of you all and sending prayers.

Steve, my heart breaks for you and the family. Judy was my school friend from the third grade, and we were so alike that we were often taken as sisters. I’m so grateful that we had reconnected, but deeply saddened now. My thoughts are with you and your children.Dawn Priestley
