Judi Died Last Night

Judi Lundy died last night at 11:15 pm. According to her son, she went peacefully and without pain.

She was Fan GOH at Concave 26, from March 4-6 this year, and I had a picture of her from that, which I wanted to post here. I can’t find it.

She was a wonderful, caring person, and those of us who were lucky enough to know her will miss her very much.

Thank you for your prayers for her, and for keeping her in your thoughts, and thank you for once again letting a little bit of my life intrude into yours.

    My heart goes out to you and to the rest of Judi’s family. She does sound like a wonderful person – and the world is somehow dimmed at losing her. Wonderful people help brighten the lives of others who in turn brighten the lives of others and so on. She will be missed.

    This is very sad news. My condolences to Judi’s family, friends and aquaintences. One of the great things about a community like this site, is that we can all support each other when we need it.

    Holly,

    I would like once again to thank you for the support you have shown to Judi over the past few years of her problem, and I would like to thank all of your correspondents for their kind and supportive words during the trial of her illness and her death.

    Judi was the Hospitality Suite Hostess for the two Louisville conventions, Rivercon and it’s successor Conglomeration, for the last fifteen years or so, and was sort of a combination den mother and friend/confessor particularly for those of us who volunteered to help with schlepping soda, cutting fruit and vegetables, making grocery runs, and all of the other little tasks which go into a successful Hospitality suite for a 700 person SF convention. She has been a good and supportive friend both in person and by e-mail (she was one of my most reliable joke-forwarders 🙂 for the years of my late wife’s health problems and in the almost five years since her death. (That’s another long story…)

    For those of you who recall the requests for prayers for her grandson Isaiah a couple of years ago, Isaiah is doing well though I’m sure he will miss his granny whom he has barely had time to know.

    Take care all, and once again, thank you and a special thank you to Holly.

    My deep sympathies and prayers for comfort to all her family and friends. Even when you see it coming, there’s no real way to prepare for this. I hope everyone at least got the chance to say good-bye. It’s not much, but it helps a little.

    The pain will fade some over time, but memories of special people remain fresh. May Judi’s memory keep all of you company through the rest of your life’s journey.

    That’s sad. It still amazes me that something that happens every day can have such a profound effect when it happens around us. You and Judi’s family are in my thoughts and prayers.

    The picture will turn up; post it when it does and, no worries until then. We look forward to the sharing.

    Judi leaves the same way she arrived in this world: infinitely loved. May cherished memories of her chase away the pain and sorrow. May the mourning hours last only as long as they’re needed, and may her family and friends have the strength to see them through their sadness. Thoughts and prayers for everyone close to her.

    I’m truly sorry to hear that and I hope everyone who loved her understands that, sad as it is, death can be a sweet release from suffering. I watched my father and wife battle cancer and it’s the toughest fight anyone will ever face. I’m sure she battled hard, but there comes a point when the battle needs to be set aside.

    My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who cared for her.

    Death is not something that can be overcome, but the pain it brings can be. I’m sorry she died, Judi sounded like a truly good person, a rarity these days. To a life well lived and a death hard fought.
