Judy was born December 22, 1930, in East Moline, Illinois, to Oscar and Alida M. (DeCroock) Lambert. She attended St. Mary’s Grade School in East Moline and graduated from U.T.H.S. in 1948. She has since worked on planning many class reunions.

During her younger years, Judy loved to dance, bowl and golf, where she formed many lasting friendships. She belonged to card clubs for most of her life. Judy sang in St. Mary’s choir until their closure, then sang in Our Lady of Guadalupe choir and funeral choir.

Judy was an avid fan of the Chicago Cubs, Bulls and Iowa Hawkeye Women’s Basketball.
