I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Judy. I can hear her now with her Mama and Daddy and Donald laughing, and telling stories of their childhood. Judy certainly will be missed. You never saw her what she didn’t have a smile on her face. May God give each one the strength now and the days ahead. All of you are certainly in my prayers. God Bless each and everyone. God need a new angel in the sky and he chose Judy.
I am so sorry for the loss of such a fine lady. Judy was such a kind and loving lady. She has touched many lives on her short time on earth. I am sure she is having a conversation with her love ones in Heaven. I can almost hear Donald and Judy laughing as they share their stories. My heart goes out to her children, grandchildren and many other family members.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Lensey & Nancy Murray

Our deepest sympathy to Judy’s family. I will never forget one hot August day, Barbara’s car broke down on highway 64 between Nashville and Rocky Mount. Judy stopped and helped Barbara by bringing her to Nashville Furniture Company. She was so nice and happy to help her. She came into the store from time to time with a friend of hers. She was always happy and had a special glow about her that brought happiness to others and to any room she entered. Prayers and Blessings to you!

I want to extend my deepest sympathy to the family for your loss. The loss of a love one is truly something that we all regret. However, the bible gives us a hope and comfort. At 2 Corinthians 13,4 the God of all comfort who comforts us during all our trials. Also John 528,29 states all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out to a resurrection. Please read these scriptures with your bible while cherishing all the fond memories of your dear love one.
