  1. Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your lossour thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

  2. Sorry to hear of Judy’s passing. So glad I had the opportunity to have had her as a neighbor. Judy was a very nice lady and always took the time to stop and chat.

  3. I remember fondly Judy’s retirement outing in a limousine with her bank employees from Southport branch. We went to Mass Ave. and had a blast. Also the fun Christmas outings and picnic in my backyard. Judy was fun and kept us together. Judy will be missed. Pam Sapoff

  4. I’m So sorry for your loss but know Judy is in a better place & whole again without pain. Singing with the angels I’m sure! Fr Tim & I visited her the Wed before she passed. We visited a little & Fr Tim gave her the blessing of the sick again. He had visited her & blessed her a week or 2 before that too. When I was there on Sun morning I learned she had passed. Hugs for all of you. Jo Watt. Greenwood Village resident & member OLG.

  5. Judy was a wonderful neighbor. We had so much fun playing Trivial Pursuit on New Year’s Day, eating her delicious turkey soup with Jim and friends and family. She was beautiful inside and out.

  6. Judy was a fantastic lady. She gave so much to others and was always ready to make others happy. She and Jim were a terrific example of a loving couple and imparted their cheerful style to their kids. She was our good natured interim adult choir director – despite some of us cut-ups. She will be sorely missed by all. Much love to her children.

  7. Judy Hoff was a great friend during our time together at Marian. Always enjoyed out time together and remember that Judy introduced me to her aunt who catered special events. We hired her to prepare food and snacks for my parents 25th wedding anniversary and everything was tasty and appreciated. I remember Judy was so proud. Interesting that I did not know Judy was a singer. I remember she liked to talk but don’t think I ever heard her sing. Good to know she had a long and happy life with family there to love and support her. I was born about two weeks after Judy back in 1940 and know how blessed everyday is in our lives. L. Bowman, Marian U. Class of 1962

  8. Judy was a wonderful person to all! As a good friend of her daughter, I as well as my whole family was welcomed to her home time and time again with open arms. Her and Jim were always so loving and fun to be with.

  9. Dear family, how truly blessed you were to have Judy as your mother, and grandmother. As you go forth on this earthly journey, try and do something each day to make someone’s else’s life a little more special to honor your mother and grandmother❣️ She did that for so many? The Sayre family
