Brad, Lucas, and Terry and your entire family, you are all in my prayers. I am sorry for your loss and pray God comforts you in your time of despair.
I met Judy years ago while she worked at Monongahela Power Co. We became lasting friends. Judy and a gang of the girls who worked together regularly meet for a reunion dinner each year and often for lunch once a month. Judy will be missed by us all. She was a wonderful person with a great personality.
Bill, Billie Jo & Boys……The Furka’s, especially Bob & Chris #11 extend our sympathy to you and your family. We truly appreciate what a family network is all about. Remember all of the good times, and be assured that she is in a good place now, and has the best seat in the house. She will be sitting next to Chris’ grandparents cheering Post 1 on. God bless and see you soon.
Bob, Chris, Linda & Audra

You have my deepest sympathy on the passing of Judy. I have known Judy I believe since first grade. I was deeply shocked when I read of her passing on The Weirton Daily Times on line. May Christ be with during your time of grief.

Terry and Janice and family,
It was with a heavy heart that I learned of Judy’s passing She was such a wonderful lady and I know you are grieving deeply. I will think of her every time I watch the Pirate’s play ball as I know she was also an avid fan. With love and prayers I am thinking of you all and will continue prayers.
Bill & Family:
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. We are truly lost for words.
My deepest sympathies to cousin Terry and family and sister Janice and family. I had the pleasure to meet Judy three years ago at the Waugh family reunion. She was a sweet and gracious lady. I so enjoyed talking to her and Terry. We became Facebook friends. I know she had a great love and much pride in her family. She loved her Pirates and always cheered for them on FB. I always enjoyed her posts about family activities. I know she will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved her. May God give you all the strength to carry on without her. Savor the wonderful memories of the good times. She will now be your guardian angel, smiling from above. Will keep you all in my prayers. God Bless.
Terry, Billy, Brad, Bryan, and Janice, I was deeply sadden by hearing Judy passed away. She was always so nice to me. I pray God comforts you in this time of sorrow. I know we are far away but if there is anything we can do please ask. We will definitely be praying for you all.

Our deepest sympathies to your entire family. I had the pleasure of working in MRI with Judy for many years. She made every person she met feel like family. She is by far the kindest soul I’ve ever met. She deeply loves you all and nobody was prouder of her family than Judy. Heaven is blessed with a beautiful angel and I’m sure she will watch over you all until you meet again.
Prayers and Sympathy,
Sherri and Mark Furda

I am so sorry to hear about Judy’s passing. I had the honor of teaching CCD with her– she was so kind and will be missed by many.
Prayers and sympathy to all of you. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Missing you every day, Sis, till we meet again, love you forever, Janice xo
Terry, I know you miss Judy everday just like I miss my mother. I remember you and Judy as a couple at Follansbee High School. I believe Judy was also on the cover of one of our year books. Judy was always kind and had a great smile. Her picture is how I remember her. Not too many marriages last as long as the one you and Judy created together. That’s something to be proud of.
Dear Judy, our 70th birthday is tomorrow, how I wish you were here to celebrate with me ~~~ we should be together for this day 😓😓 I know Mommy & Daddy are with you & Mommy is making you the famous Miracle Whip Cake !! Michelle is making mine, LOL ~~ Enjoy your day, SIS, till we meet again, I love & miss you so â¤ï¸â¤ï¸â¤ï¸
