My baby sister, oh how I miss you already. If I could have 1 day of the strength you had, the love you shared, the people you have touched, the people you have blessed the faith you had. I would feel like one super women . You were so love by everyone who has ever been part of your life. You were a wonderful wife to your husband which I so admire. A friend as a mother, and a grandma like a fairy tale. You have been the most amazing sister any one could have ever had. I know everyone says that about their sister, but everyone who ever meet my sister want to claim her so I know its true. And I have never meet anyone who didn’t love you. You will be truly missed. I love you

Aunt Judy was one of my favorite Aunts. I am going to miss so much about her. I have a lot of great memories. One time I had a migraine that wouldn't quit and felt faint so I drove to her house cuz I didn't feel like I could make it home. It seemed like she was always home when I needed her. She took me inside and rubbed my head for me until I felt better. Then I drove safely home. I will never forget that or her being my lamaze coach. Such a great woman. She understood what it meant to be a true, tight family. My heart goes out to Uncle Charlie, Jese and Beca. I will be here for you guys forever and always.

Judy will be soooo missed!! She was such an inspiration to people everywhere she met them!! Strong in her Faith! I am so very thankful that she loved my sister (Rhonda Thompson) and so thankful that she shed a lot of laughter, When those two were turned loose on going to chemo and Doctors appointments!!!! Trouble, those two!!! So many memories together!! Judy is part of mine and Rhonda, and Wanda's Flat Family!!! She was sooo excited to be part of it! Thank You Judy for loving Rhonda with all your heart and letting her Love You right back and letting her Pamper you!!! Love to our Special Angel, Judy!!

Judy was my 2nd mom in middle school. It never cease to amaze me the love she had for her family and for the new families she made as her daughters brought friends into their home. She was a huge inspiration in my life and I will always cherish the times I got to spend with her and her lovely family. God bless and be with you, Charlie, Jesica and Becca.

Aunt Judy, I was going to visit you today, and I was too late.... you already "hopped" up to Heaven on Leap Day to be with Grandma..... I know in my heart though, you already know what I would have said to you (= I don't know why, but when I was little and the moon was a sliver, I'd say "Aunt Judy ate the moon".... haha. Well, in the bright sky earlier today, there was a partial moon in daylight; I know you were there.... love you, miss you, see you again!

Judy loved with grace and generosity of spirit. She was willing to be vulnerable for those she loved; she taught me much about unconditional love. Those of us that were loved by her have known her power; it will sustain us all throughout our lives. May we comfort one another with God's peace and remember Judy as a child of God who loved well. Charlie, Jes, Beca, Harold, HC, and Quenton you were blessed with an extraordinary wife and mother. Thanks be to God. Grateful to have her as part of my life forever, Mary Jo

Mama, Even though you never reached your 50th birthday, and we never danced at my own wedding, and you never met my future children, you lived a long, happy life! The example that you have set for me will forever shine in my heart and I can only hope that one day I can be half the mother you were to Jes and me. We promise to take care of Dad and cherish every moment with our family. I am so happy that you are young, healthy, and pain free once again! Thank you for all the wonderful memories and for taking such good care of us. Please don't hesitate to drop by or send me a sign every now and then to let me know you are near. I love you, Mama! I miss you so much! Beca

Judy has always been in my life. I don't remember a time when she wasn't there. I miss her so much! Even through the miles, I think we stayed close. God gave us an angel to bless our lives and called her home before any more pain could be felt on her broken body. She fought a fight that a lesser person would have given up on years ago. Charlie, Jes, Beca, I am always here for you. If you need a place to go, come to Alabama. Love you always! Phyllis

Judy, this hit me pretty hard and still very heartbreaking. It has been a few years since I saw you in Wal*Mart. You were sick, but only worried abt me and my rehab from tbi. I miss you & love you always, just as I know you do me. You touched my heart in many ways, starting back when you trained me for ur job at Wal*Mart. You were/are a very special person. God bless you and ur entire family & friends to have comfort in their hearts. She always spoke of Charlie, Jessica and Becca. She loved y'all very much. Till we meet again.......... I Love You Forever!!!
