I miss you lady
I had the honor of meeting Judy through my father. My father was in telecommunications and she placed my father in Texas. Judy was so great at building a rapport with her clients and candidates. Because of her talent and caring for others she found out from my father that I was a headhunter.
Judy reached out to me and hired me and within a month I was off to Illinois. While I was there for training she made me feels so significant. She just loved the way I worked and a special industry talent she couldn't believe. (he,he) I can't share this publically I'd give away our secrets, lol.
Seriously though Judy and I's relationship continued to grow even after we were no longer working together. We had such a great time on the phone together and we would drink coffee (Judy) and tea (me). We would be up late making placements and just laughing our heads off.
Judy just loved her daughter and her grandchildren so much. She was so proud of the family she had built with Dan. Judy just loved loving on all of them.
Later on in my career I decided to open my own staffing firm and Judy was right there with me. We laughed and laughed as we were trying to pick names. She showed me how to incorporate and just took me under her wing. Selfless and gracious you always were Judy. I just love and miss you everyday. I still hear your infectious laugh. I still have to get our daughter Hope to Lake Michigan with Angie in your honor. I know you will be there with us.
I truly miss you lady. It hurts that we can't laugh on phone anymore and tell silly stories. Wow, would we get goofy. I miss it every day.
You are the best! Angie had a great role model on what a relationship with your children should look like.
Love you so much.
PS- Your stuffed mushrooms .. Yummy.. I have to see if I can find the recipe and make them..
