Judy played the piano since grade school and played at two different churches. She attended several churches including Southern Hills Baptist Church. She was active in Bible School and the Senior Adult Choir. Judy enjoyed “going” even when it was snowing. The more snow the more she wanted to go. She liked singing and even took singing lessons at age 62. Judy enjoyed her grandchildren and kept them almost every day from birth to pre-k. She enjoyed “get-away” trips with Harrell and train rides with the grandchildren. She and Harrell were very much in love with each other and were almost always holding hands.
