“Obviously, she was Catholic” is fun but the “She would want us to write here that she had options” aside is killing me

A couple of Judy’s family members are in the replies. I’m sorry for your loss, and grateful to you for letting some internet strangers share just a little bit in celebrating what sounds like a beautiful life.

Your comment made me teary. (I’m her son-in-law)

My mom Judy died almost exactly a year ago. This Judy sounds every bit as feisty and fun. God bless her, and God bless her kids for sending her off in style.

Wow, and just like that, the March Or May mystery is solved. All of the above of course goes for you too, Liz—thank you for sharing.

In recent years we did. After we discovered that her real birthday was March! 😂 Always kept us on our toes!

The real story she told ONLY her grandkids was that she had a fake ID and that’s where the 2nd date came from—which is scandalous for a woman of her day, especially one who later became a parole officer for juvenile delinquent girls (that’s what they called them in the late 1950s).
