A message from Judy















This is a note my mom had her friend Diane help her write today I thought I would share it with you. 
Dear Family and Friends,
My friend Diane, from Washington is here today and is transcribing this letter for me.
First I want to wish my dear Sister, Ruthie, happy birthday on this very day.
Judy and Diane
I want to thank all of you for all your love and prayers. I have felt them every day. I thank your spouses for letting each of you to be with me in thought and in person as my dear best friends. They say you often have only five best friends to list when you pass away, but I have so many more. My mind isn‘t as sharp as I wish it were, so if your name isn‘t listed please know it was unintentional and you are loved even if you‘re not specifically named. I am blessed to have these best friends: Robin, Norma June, Ruthie, Monica and all my grand-kids, LaDon, Eric, Arlene, Betty, Lori Trowbridge, Karen & Louie Luisi, Sharon, Pat and Ken, Marie, Sue, all the Joslin, Sanchez, and Hannah family members, My brother Ric and his family, and everyone else at the Sierra Meadows complex
Thank you for the phone calls, visits, prayers, taking me to doctors, letters, messages and get well wishes and thoughts.
Today I’m feeling pretty good. I’m staying with my daughter, LaDon, who has been taking absolutely wonderful care of me. She has been working with the doctors and hospice and has my medications working well for my pain. LaDon is right there whenever I need her. I so appreciate her love and support now when I need it the most.
The hospice caretakers are wonderful. My nurse Kathy Keiser and LVN Melissa. They show love and compassion and are so dependable. I can’t thank them enough for their care!
Thank you for being my friend, thank you for loving me. And I love and cherish each one of you!!

  1. You are in my prayers daily. I do not know you, personally, but I do know your daughter, LaDon, and she is a shining example of the love you hold for her, life, and the Lord. God Bless you as you continue your journey.
