Judy was passionate in her support to help others improve themselves through her work as a business coach. She was a great lover of the outdoors, spending long summer days at 'the cabin' on Kooteney Lake. Music also played a big part in her life, both listening to her favorite Beatles albums and also spending time teaching the organ to local kids and adults

She is survived by her two sons, Danny, his wife Miranda and their sons Alek and Leo; and Greg and his wife Ying; her sister Verna (Ken) and two brothers Gary and Brian (Gerry) together with numerous nieces, nephews and cousins; and former spouse, Fred.
