Judy excelled at large family gatherings. Prepared all the meals for many people, while being the perfect hostess. She was an artist for decades and taught many classes. She was also a member of Pikes Peak Painters. She was a successful Real Estate Broker, the perfect wife, homemaker, mother and grandmother.

She made Jim Butcher happy and successful for 57 years. Judy was a happy, positive and determined person.
People wanted to be around her because she was smart and fun. Her pets thought they had died and gone to heaven. All her nieces wanted to be “Aunt Judy”. She was the favorite aunt.
