Tammy, Fran, Gina, and Anne, Words are not adequate at this time. I am praying the God will be with you and carry you all through the grieving process. Judy was truly one of the most beautiful and loving women I have ever had the honor to know. I can hear her laugh now. Truly, she is in a better place, but to those left behind it leaves a heart bruised. She loved her girls dearly and I know she will keep a watchful eye in Heaven.

To Judy's Family, I'm so sorry, I know your heart is broken. Judy was a special Lady that loved her Family with all her heart, I remember Judy as a sweet Lady that was so funny to be around. The McCorkle Family are so Blessed to have Judy as a sister, aunt, cousin to the Family. I consider myself lucky to have her as a Friend, and I love The McCorkle Family, they are a great and close Family, I feel so Blessed to know each and everyone of the Family. May God Bless and comfort everyone of You during this sad time.....
