I met,my dear friend, Judy, at the Falmouth Congregational Church in 2010 . I visited the church that day as I had recently moved to Falmouth from Arizona and was looking for a church to attend. Judy was the greeter that day! Looking back on it, I just think it was devine intervention!Judy was a very special lady and I recognized that right off. I was so pleased to have found this lovely lady that the church seemed like the perfect place for me! As time went on we worked together on several committees at church and shared so many things about our lives. It was a trusted relationship and I knew my friend was someone with undying faith and a love for Falmouth Congregational Church which was abounding! Many months into our friendship, we realized that we had the same birthday! Wereally made the best of it each year by going out to lunch together, than we decided to invite other friends who had birthdays close to ours!we all had so much fun together! I live in Georgetown, Texas now and am so sorry that I cannot be at her funeral tomorrow. I want to pay my respects in the loss of my dear friend but, I cannot be there. I will sit here at home in Texas in quiet thought at the time of her funeral. You will always have a very special place in my heart. I know that you are surely enjoying all of the peace and beauty that we know as Heaven. Somewhere there you will find a kitchen to make cookies and candy and your life in the Kingdom will go on! I love you, Judy. Sherry Anderson
