Grandma Judy/ Traute Erna Elfriede Reynolds

Grandma Judy was a foster grandparent at Faifield Center School who helped in Mrs. Larose's 1st grade for many years. She was always supportive of all ages. Each Fall for many years judy canned hundreds of jars of vegetables to donate to the food shelf. Even though she had haunting memories of the past, like WWII "surviving horrible atrocities she still had the passion to live". Her husband Maurice, said "here's five names pick one, nobody can say the other ones". So she picked Judy and she was Judy ever after .March 18, 2011 she pasted away. She was loved through out the whole town of Fairfield especially by students st Fairfield Center School. We appreciate every thing that she has done for us. She now lives in our hearts.
