Mrs. Nesky was a gracious and loving lady who welcomed us into her home with open arms. She will be greatly missed. May God bless her family always. We love you,
What a beautiful lady! Carrie and Penny you were blessed with a beautiful, kind and loving mother. May you always carry that in your hearts.
Judy was the first person that Dawn met at Centennial Homes and they very quickly became dear friends. We are blessed to have loved and known this beautiful precious lady. We are thankful for all the wonderful memories we hold dear to us for nearly fifty years. We hold Stan and all of her family near to our hearts because we know how much she will be missed in your life. God Bless you.
Judy was a beautiful woman inside and out, a wonderful neighbor and a dear friend. Her smile and laugh will be with me always. Sending love and prayers to Stan, Penny, Carrie, and thewhole family.
I have known Judy since the 7th grade. In junior high we had a group of 8 that went Square Dancing once a week at Northside Recreation. My mom used to take us. Judy, Jerri, and I ran around together often. In high school someone in our group of friends would have a Saturday night party at their house. We would all bring our 45 records, dance, and eat. It was so much fun. The girls also had a lot of Slumber Parties. It is too bad that after high school everyone seemed to go their separate ways – to college, getting married, and/or moving away. Dear friends like Judy are never forgotten, but remembered and loved in our hearts. She was always one of the sweetest, dearest persons I have ever known. Precious memories❣️
Judy was a lovely and gracious friend and neighbor. Her smile and bubbly personality brightened the lives of those around her. She will be missed but will always have a special place in my heart.
Love you Mimi
A person is never truly gone until all those that remember them are gone. She will live on in my memories making cookies and letting me decorate them with way too much icing like a 6 year old boy likes to do.
