As a young bride, Judy did free-lance typing work and then became a crossing guard when she had young children. Judy then moved on to secretarial work in the Rockville Centre Schools eventually rising to Administrative Assistant to the Superintendent of the Rockville Centre Schools.
Judy always valued education. After years of night school and examinations she was awarded a Bachelor of Science Degree from The University of the State of New York, with an emphasis in literature.
Judy loved travelling, gardening and being outdoors, music, reading and cats. She loved to host parties for her family and friends. But most of all, Judy’s life was about giving to others, especially her children and grandchildren. She was the best mother anyone could ever have. She was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
