Judith "Judy" Getzlow was a devoted wife, loving mother, gifted scholar, and champion of education. Her passion for learning and inspiring learning in others as well as her unselfish and tireless dedication to her family truly set her apart. Even though she is no longer with us in this life, her bright spirit lives on in those who knew her. Although she suffered with Parkinson's disease, she refused to let it keep her from living and growing her mind. She is an inspiration- a truly AMAZING human being. Her legacy lives on in her family, friends, students and community.
