When Judy lived on Military St in Oxford, she had a goat as a pet that she kept in the backyard. Todd and I were playing around the house. Not sure how it happened, but the goat got loose and came into the house through the open backdoor. When we came in, the goat had climbed up onto the kitchen counter, (standing on it) and was eating groceries. Judy came in right then and we all had a good laugh. She didn't get mad. She just led the billy goat back outside and we had another great story to tell. Love you, Judy!

I remember as a kid Todd and me riding with Judy out to one of her job sites in the country where she had been clearing land. Judy had to go down a long dirt road that was full of potholes and bumps. We were in a pretty old dump truck. On the way back out from the job site, Judy drove fast enough that when she hit the potholes Todd and I were catapulted out of the seat with such force our heads would hit the roof of the truck. Judy laughed so hard. She would also put us in the front end loader (with the bucket raised high) and travel across the farm so we could get a nice 20 foot view of things. Judy loved creating adventures and memories with the people she loved. She had a great sense of humor. Her smile had energy. Her mother, Macy, also loved to laugh.

Rest in peace my sweet cousin Judy. You lived and loved well and through your health struggles you have earned your angel wings. We didn't get to visit often, but when we
did get together our time was always filled with love and laughter. I'll miss that infectious smile and the knowing that you were always there for a friend in need. We love you and Cookie, always have and always will.

Judy loved deeply and was there for many people all throughout her life. I will cherish my memories of Judy, Cookie, Mom, and the rest of the family and the good times we spent together. Judy loved her father, Basil Hart, and she looked up to him and the example he set in her life. I know that she is at peace and with him now, and her mom Macy, and Scottie. Many hearts have been touched by Judy along the way. We were all better for having known her and for the time she shared with us being a cheerleader in our lives, a mentor, and a friend. We love you Judy, always and forever.

Our family lost a sweet and dear family member this week. Judy was the essence of unconditional love- - always willing to lend a helping hand, always showing concern for others and always showing compassion for each person she met. Her love, admiration and respect for her Daddy (Uncle B) was something I will never forget. And she carried those same sentiments to others. 
Judy- you will be missed in our daily lives, but we will carry your spirit in our hearts forever.
Cookie- my love and prayers to you. You are and will always be "our family."
Anita (NeNe to Judy)

Bumpy Truck

July 7, 2018
by Max Menius

As little kids, Judy drove Todd and me far out into the country to check on a timber clearing job she and her Dad had been working on. We were excited to be with her and to get a ride in the dump truck. As we left the job site, Judy took a rough dirt road out that had large potholes. 

For fun she would gun the engine and hit the potholes lifting Todd and me completely off the seat and bumping our heads on the roof of the truck. She laughed so hard and so did we!! 

Another time when I was visiting Judy on Military St. in Oxford, we left the back door open. When we came back, one of her Billy goats was standing on the Kitchen counter eating a loaf of bread Ah, so funny - will never forget it. Love you Judy Hart! We miss you, Max.
