Recollections & Sympathy For the Family

Words cannot express my sadness at Judy's passing. The Cross family loved her so much. Judy and Aunt Ethel were such important stables in our upbringing. Judy was a private person and didn't want to share her illness with a personal visit but I was so happy to have spoken to her and share my expression of love and gratitude of what she was to my family. My heart goes out to Robbie, Doug, Darryl and Tara during this sad time.
