Thoughts and prayers for my cousins at the loss tough, intelligent, and loving Judy.
May God give you all comfort. I am so sorry for your loss. I enjoyed her friendship on Facebook when she was able to be on. I am sure it was Barbara that connected us on Facebook. It seems like it was a while back since she was actively posting.
Love in Christ,
Karen Long
Thanks Karen. Yes, it had been awhile since she was active on social media.
Thanks for making the journey for the services.
From Linda and Clem. Our prayers go out to the Homrighaus family and friends. As lifelong friends we are greatly saddened by your loss. We know that God will take care of Judy.
Thanks. Yes, she’s in God’s hands now & free of her troubles!
Deepest condolences she was a beautiful soul.
Thanks. She definitely was.
My deepest condolences to Judy’s family. We met at St. Patrick’s School in kindergarten and entered Dominican College in Houston together. We kept in touch until she was unable to continue electronic communication. Even though I lost contact & information about a mailing address, I continued to wish her a Happy Birthday every year on September 5th. In Heaven, Judy, you are now free of the challenges you endured over the last 50+ years. Love and friendship always, Jennifer
Jennifer – So happy to see your comments. This is Ken, Judy’s brother. I remember you from my childhood, but couldn’t find a way to contact you to let you know about Judy. I recall several of Judy’s friends – you, Margo, Paula & Carla. Have some old photos that I would be happy to share with you. Please reach out if you would like to see them.
