Judith was not just a colleague, but a confidant. Our schedules were such that we often taught on the same evenings, allowing for post-class conversations in her office. Topics mostly centered around current events, a student’s progress or family matters. Judith adored her grandson Henry, and took special pleasure (like any proud grandparent) in relating any of his latest milestones—illustrated with photos if available.
As a committed teacher, Judith helped students cultivate their artistic voice in the years leading toward their senior thesis. Though her passing will leave a great void at the university, I am confident that her warmth and kindness, will be remembered forever. Her artistic spirit will live on through the legions of students she taught during her tenure at Caldwell University.
Because Judith and I shared a "geeky" love for all matters related to color theory, she will always be in my thoughts whenever I see a swatch of Color-aid paper or a passing rainbow.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Judith was a wonderful human being. She will truly be missed by all.
