Judi when I came to IU School of Nursing you took me under your wing. You were such a great mentor and friend to me. Recently I have so enjoyed our many telephone conversations. I will truly miss you. Cathy Wiliams
Judi was like a sister to me, her family was like my family. No words can be told how much I loved her. The loss will be great. My prayers are with her family. Sharon (Sutton)Cobbs
Sorry to hear about your sister Linda may God be with you at this time
One of my favorite memories is seeing Judi in a white tea length formal, it was white and Katie had put tiny red bows all around the skirt, omg she looked so beautiful! I was lucky to be a part of that family, she will be missed by so many!
I had the pleasure of working with Judi for several years at IUPUI. She was a very considerate, kind and thoughtful co-worker. My sister and I enjoyed lunching with her and she made delicious fudge. We will miss our friend. Pat and Pam May
