Judy was a classmate of mine at both Hullett Central and CHSS. She was a great person. I am certain that she positively touched a countless number of lives both through her nursing career and her relationships with family and friends. My sincerest condolences to all her family on their loss.

Joan and Bert and family: We were so sorry to hear of the sudden loss of your dear sister, Judy. We are thinking of you, your dad, Connie, Larry and all your families at this time. Sincerely, Wayne and Lois Tebbutt

My sincere condolences to Judy's family. Judy will always remain in my heart, as a lovely smiling and dedicated nurse. It has been along while since, I worked with Judy and it is with sadness, I have heard of her passing. To all who knew her, she will remain in our prayers. Judy , you will be greatly missed and may you remain in peace with the Lord.

When we started out together in the NICU on South Street we were a group of young women just starting our careers and our lives. So many years have passed in friendship - it is so hard to let you go. Judy, you took such joy and pride in your daughters and in your family. You will be greatly missed.

Judy was my friend for over forty years. She was a devoted mother respected nurse and loving friend. Kristen, Karen, Gary and family my sincere sympathy is with you. I will never forget our good times laughs and friendship.

My deepest condolences to Judy's family! Such a sudden loss of a beautiful woman, whom meant so much to all that knew her! I worked for many years with Judy in the OR and we became good friends during those years! I have many fond memories that I will cherish !

Our entire department was saddened to hear of Judy's passing. Judy was an exceptional nurse who was respected by all who worked with her. But even more than this she was a special person who made peoples' lives better every day - patients, colleagues, and friends alike. We will all miss Judy very much. Our condolences to Kristen, Karen and the entire family.

It is with great sadness that we leave this short tribute to one of life's best! Through 30 years of friendship we have shared many good times, along with times of extreme heartache and sorrow. Judy's strength humour and love will never be forgotten through it all. She had a passion for life that all who knew her will agree to and cherish forever The friendship of both Ron and Judy throughout our life has truly been an honour. They now leave behind two beautiful daughters who provided incredible joy and pride. The strength and love you have inherited will now be put to the test. Most heartfelt sympathy to both of you. To Gary, Judy was taken from you way too soon. She was so fortunate and grateful to have you come into her life and have your love and comfort during her most desparate days. To those left behind....Gary, Karen, Kristen, Jim, Joan, Connie, Larry and families & all our friends....May Judy live on in all of us! You will never be forgotten dear Friend!

Saddened to learn of Judy's passing. Judy was so helpful to me as a newly graduated RN working in ICU at Victoria Hospital, south street campus. I learned so much from her , which helped build my confidence. She was a wonderful, caring person. Sending our deepest sympathy to her family. Sincerely, Bill and Pat Roy

It is with great sadness and with shock that I find myself writing this message in honour of my dear friend Judy. I have known Judy for a few short but valuable years. We had many heart to heart chats and lots of laughs on our drives to and from work. She was a wise woman with good advice. She was a strong and passionate individual who stood for equality and was always looking out for her coworkers to make the day and life better for everyone. All the condolences I have read on this site have captured the essence of her personality. Everyone is absolutely right about the smile on her face and she always greeted everyone with a welcomed hello. She spoke fondly of her girls, and loved them with all her heart. She was dedicated to her family and adored Gary and her family. I will truly miss her. My sincere sympathies.

I know Judy from our high school days. She was always fun-loving, kind with a sweet and gentle spirit. My heart goes out to her daughters, Kristen and Karen, her companion, Gary, her dad and to Connie, Joan and Larry and their families.

Sending our deepest sympathy and thoughts to Kristen and Karen - your mother was so proud of you two, to her loving partner Gary, to Connie and Joan, the best sisters, to her dad Jim and brother Larry and families. For over 40 years we have journeyed together Jude, we've been through so much together and I am so very sad that we are parting ways. Wherever your journey takes you now our souls are connected and you will remain cherished within my heart...until we meet again my dear friend

I have only known Judy for a few years but we shared a love for" The Young and the Restless" and when we worked together that was our only catch up time on the soap we shared many a laugh over this and I will miss that as silly as it is, but I will miss her smile and kind words she always had for me....May God Bless your family with strength to carry them through this difficult time.. Sincerely, Wendy

To Gary, Karen, Kristen and all Judy's family. Judy has been my best friend since childhood and I will miss her dearly. May her wonderful memories sustain you in this time of sorrow.

My sincerest condolences to Judy's family and friends. I was shocked to hear the news when I walked into the OR on Thursday. There was a definite sadness all around that was palpable. On behalf of our department, and from all of us who had the pleasure of working with Judy over the years, we appreciated your skill, caring and dedication. I always enjoyed working with Judy....fixing people with some good laughs. :) We will miss you. :(

Although the time I knew Judy wasn't very long, she definitely had an impact on my career in the Operating Room. Judy was so friendly and encouraging from the moment I started in the OR. Her smile and personality could make a stressful day better. She was a strong advocate for all of her colleagues and patients in the OR and this is something thatI will remember and learn from for the rest of my career. You will be deeply missed by all of your colleagues at work...it just won't be the same without you. My deepest condolences to Judy's family and friends during this difficult time.

My sincerest condolences to Judy's friends and family - This is devastating to our Victoria Hospital O.R. family too. I had worked with Judy (along with most of us) for as long as I've had a career.

Can't believe a month ago, everything seemed fine - just can't take anything for granted....

Dear Gary, Kristen & Karen, Jim, Connie, Joan, & Larry & families, Judy was many things to those who loved her. To me: a loyal friend & colleague from Nurse's training. Judy was a gentle soul , who like others was not immune to life's challenges, yet she faced each one with a gracious acceptance. When we gathered socially, most recently, she was eager for the future. Judy was blessed to have found relationship happiness twice in her lifetime. 'Til we meet again, Judy' With caring thoughts, Jill (Drysdale) & Ralph Geiger

Our condolences to Gary, and all of Judy's family and freinds. She was a great neighbor and loved her beautiful garden on Phillbrook Crescent.

Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Judy you had such a way about you. You were smart and you would never back down from a challenge. You loved your family and friends unconditionally, speaking of your daughters with pride and maternal concern. You found strong, loving relationships- twice blessed. I'm so glad to have had your friendship for the past 42 years. Rest peacefully my friend and co worker.

Judy and I use to share a job in the OR many years ago. Had it not been for her flexibility and sweet disposition I never would of been able to continue working.
