I have known Judy since our school days in Johnston. Our paths crossed over the years when I went to Edisto, attended high school reunions or came to Columbia to see family. In March of 2022 she and Paul relocated to Lexington at the same time that I made the decision to move here. We enjoyed monthly lunch with other JHS friends. Last December when Judy was diagnosed with cancer, she handled it bravely. I was fortunate to be by her side very often over the past year. It was an honor to help her in any way I could. Wonderful memories are many and I will miss her. Rest in peace, dear friend.
