    Judi will be greatly missed by the Oak Grove High School class of 1961. For many years Judi arranged our class reunions and she was such a great friend to all. We loved to hear stories about her family, horses, cats, dogs and other endeavors. May Judi rest in peace. Our condolences to her family. Paula Johnson Poll

    My love, hugs and prayers for Ray, Edie and family. Judi was a wonderful friend for 20 years and I will miss her. She was so proud of her niece and nephew and 3 great-nephews! Can you imagine the beautiful garden that she is resting in now! God Bless.

    Judi was a faithful correspondent over many years. Getting snail mail from her was a real treat.
    Our shared memories date from a long time ago but they are still remembered with affection.
    My thoughts and condolences are with all of the family.

    I haven’t seen Judy since she was in high school and I was in junior high. Edie was a good friend and I spent time at the Wiggin’s home. I remember Judy as having a huge personality buzzing in and out. It made me wish I had an older sister like her. When she went to college and was big deal for me. The exiting life of an older woman!! Her gardens, although I have never seen them, I understand that they are famous to friends and family. My thoughts and sympathy are with Mr Lawson, Edie and all the members of her family.
