She was so proud of her family home in Rocky Point, Mexico, relaxing on the beach with Johnny by her side, enjoying a nice cold beverage and listening to her favorite singer; Julio Iglesias. Flagstaff, Arizona was one of her other favorite places to go in the summer to enjoy the nice weather and maybe catch a horse race or two. Judy was a beautiful woman, vivacious, generous, witty and always the life of the party. She loved to cook home-made gourmet meals for Johnny.
