Dear Helen and family, So sorry for your loss, she will be missed of that I am sure. I didn’t know her very well however in any exchanges we had she was very pleasant. She will no longer suffer and she will once again be reunited with her family in heaven. I think Judy will have a special little someone who she has probably thought about over the years. I pray for you as a family and especially my best friend Marjorie, that soon you will be able to share your funny memories of her with each other. Again my condolences for your loss! Bonnie Hartlen.

I was deeply saddened when I heard that Aunt Judy had passed away. She was a very nice lady. Mom is going to miss her immensely. She really enjoyed their talks. Heaven has gotten another one of the snoop sisters. I’m sure all the Westhaver sisters are enjoying each other’s company. I remember the time, mom, Cathy, Judy and I went by bus to Bangor to go shopping. We had an awesome time, spent some money and a lot of laughs. Keep your memories alive and your mom will always be with you. Cindy (Rhyno) and Kevin Borden

Marjorie Rhyno
Cathy, Janet, Mom, Sonny, Vic and Freddy and families. I don’t think I realized just how sick my sweet Aunt was until I saw Cathy’s posts on Facebook, she was so beside herself with pain and anguish and that’s when I knew. Sonny and his wife Judy, this is a popular name in our family, always invited me and Mom down for supper, when I was home, and Judy was always there with us. Sonny being the funny guy that he is would have us in stitches with laughter. When I was going to Community College and lived near my aunt Sheila and Uncle Bill, the “snoop Sisters” would all pool their money and drive up to the valley and we always had a good time. Mom is going to miss her last sister because a bond between sisters is different than between a sister and brother. I hope they will check on Mom so she doesn’t feel so lonely. Cathy and Janet, I know your hearts are broken, but love your children and grandchildren as they are an extension of your Mom. Judy was a great lady, soft spoken, and sweet. I loved her dearly while she was here with us and I will continue to love her memories until I get to see all of them again. Love you all and miss you all so much.

When You Have A Bad Day Touch Your Heart Because That Is Where Your Mom Will Be. Keep Those Memories Alive Inside Of You, They Will Get You Through Some Very Tough Days Ahead. Your Mom Would Want You To Keep Your Life Going With A Smile. May Judy Now Rest In Peace, She Is Now A Special Angel With God Who Has Earned Her Golden Wings!!!
