My name is Jack Nicastro and I have been Judy's significant other for the past year. It is with a great deal of sadness that I inform you of her passing on August 30th, 2003. She She died as she lived - peacefully and surrounded by those who love her. Memorial services were held on Sunday, September 7th. It was Judy's request that contributions be sent to organizations that engage in the preservation and conservation of nature.

Condolences can be sent to her children, Erin and Steve Weinstein at 7024 Kenton, Lincolnwood, IL 60712.

It would be befitting that this be the closing chapter in her journal which she faithfully maintained until the end.
