I’ve worked with Ms. Judy for 5 years now and she was 1 of the sweetest souls I’ve ever met. She’ll truly be missed ❤

Hi,

I am terribly sorry and saddened to hear about this. Judy was a wonderful mom and person that loved her family very much.

Although we have all experienced loss, I can only imagine how impacting this terrible loss is for those of you who were closest to Judy. She was too young to go but maybe that is because she had served her purpose on Earth and was called home early. I know that may not help and nothing can take the pain of this loss away, but I hope you can take some small comfort in knowing and believing that you will see her again.

Sorry again for this terrible loss.

Mike Malone

I have worked with Judy for 12 years. We worked together at Aetna then I referred her to Quantum Health. At Aetna we learned how to have difficult conversations with people on the phones. It was called “rollin with resistance’ “ we had a song we created for team building? That song will be stuck in my head with Judy’s words forever! Chorus was to CCR-Proud Mary! . I loved hearing her sing! I love when Judy came to the race track with us. She always wanted to race her car on the track. I know she is singing in heaven and I hope she has a chance to race that car!!! Love you Judy! You will be missed by many. Love and prayers to her family.

To Judy’s family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Judy was such an amazing lady, I have nothing but amazing memories of her! Judy is the most amazing co-worker I have had. She was so kind, caring and loving to all. She wasn’t just a co-worker though, was a cheerleader in my health journey; celebrating my victories and rallying with me when I fell. We would definitely encourage each other to be our best selves! I will miss you deeply Judy, love and peace.

Condolence from Arnita Branch on December 21st, 2021 10:58 pm

Judy, my friend, my colleague, my confidant. I will miss you, especially your smile. You always greeted me (each time we would see each other) with your beautiful smile, a twinkle in your eyes that could light up the world and an up beat free spirit. You always looked at situations from every possible point of view and made decisions based on what was best for everyone. You could always see the humor in life and lift my spirits by making me laugh. You taught me to remain light hearted and to experience everything from my heart. Save me a seat by you in the nurses’ choir. We need you here with us but I know that God needed you more in heaven to keep spirits high. To Judy’s family. I know that you will miss Judy’s smile, laugh and her free spirit that she so generously shared with all of us. You were so blessed to have her as part of your family. Continue to experience her free spirit in your own lives; laugh out loud, paint with bold colors, mix and match things that work. Judy will be waiting to welcome you home and her angelic robe will be bright and bold. Be blessed.

Condolence from DeAngelo Blanchard on December 21st, 2021 11:10 pm

Offering you all love and light as you celebrate the life of Mama Duff! I’ll miss our side chats that indiscreetly would happen in front of everyone, her life advice warranted or not (haha), and the way her infectious laugh would warm you soul. I pray that this transition comes with healing! My sincerest condolences!

As I pray for an abundance of blessings,

DeAngelo Blanchard

Condolence from LaShaunda Malone on December 22nd, 2021 9:23 am

I am very sorry to hear this sad news about our sister Judy. We will miss her. I will most of all miss her laughter and smile. Condolences to all who will miss her and always keep her memory alive.

Condolence from Karla (Pritchet) Webb on December 22nd, 2021 12:59 pm

I was so sad to hear about Judy’s passing. I have known her since I was a very young girl. I always enjoyed her smile and that laugh!! She was so kind and so giving. There is so much I could say because she’s been around my family for so long. She was there for my family when my mother passed this past May. We appreciated her so much. Her physical presence will truly be missed, but all the wonderful memories will live on through all that knew her. To her children and other family members, may God carry you through and keep you strengthened.
I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.
Karla (Pritchet) Webb
