Gayle & Tom, Mindy & Bill and Jim – We are so sorry for your loss. Judy is such a wonderful soul and will be greatly missed by so many. Her courage was inspiring, as was her generous heart. May she rest in the peace of Christ.
God bless the Harvey family! She was such a wonderful woman of faith.
My prayers are with the family and with Judy! She will be missed. I will always remember our times together at First Saturday devotions at her home with Mindy and her family and friends. Her faith was great.
God bless a gracious and generous lady – Judy Harvey. I fondly recall our annual September retreat day at her home in Lashara for the IPF Mission Advancement Council and staff. Hearing Mass in the Cathedral-like chapel was very special. I also remember cheering on Dick and his Bluejay team in the old Creighton gym. as a 10 year old. A wonderful couple now reunited in heaven..
I saw Judy’s obituary too late to attend her visitation and funeral. I would have been there to honor her.
She was a very special person! She was so kind, generous and dedicated to her family. I admired her greatly. This is a tremendous loss and I will always I remember her fondly.
