the young age of 49 years,
following a sudden and criti-

Judy was preceded in
death by her mother and step-
dad, Pollie and Fred Kile; her
dad, James Johnson; and a
nephew, James Simpson.
Judy will always be the
shining light of
our family. She
has gone home to
be with our Lord
and will be waiting
there for those of
us that put our faith
in Christ as our re-
deemer. Thank you
for your prayers
on her behalf. God
has answered those
prayers with His
best, and most
beautiful reward:
HEAVEN. Please contin-
ue to pray for our family as
we adjust to living without
her physical presence. As a
child, Judy, the youngest of
was united in marriage to B.

CAPECO for a time. She
was a member of the First

children that she loved and
favorite. As she grew up,
those same qualities brought
her many friends. She was a
leader in youth activities as
her children grew, and wel-
comed children that needed a
loving mentor.
Judy had a loving heart,
and she will be missed by
all whose lives she touched.
Heaven is a little brighter just
knowing she is there waiting.
We serve an awesome God
and He watches over us with
love. He knows our needs
through this hard time, and
