Judi was a nurse for 30 years. She worked in many nursing disciplines and departments during her career, which she loved. She started her career in Marion, Ohio; then moving to the New Orleans area. During her time in New Orleans she was able to focus on her favorite discipline which was critical and cardiac care.
As her time in New Orleans came to a close Judi moved home to Marion to care for her mother. She worked for a juvenile corrections facility until her retirement and the closure of the facility.
She loved gardening, sitting by the pool, and her little Shitzu dogs.
