Pat,Ryan and Rachel,

Someone as wonderful and full of life as Judy was spreads throughout many aspects of one's life. Myself and my family had the pleasure of knowing Judy through Morgan Park Academy, Day Care when our kids were little and hockey. I will always remember your mom as a woman full of life, laughter and love. She touched many lives. My family's thoughts are with all of you. Karen, Max and Sam Cook

To The Harrison Family:

Please except my sincere sympathy to you. I just was made aware that Judy has passed away. How sorry I feel for you. Judy and I were such good friends while teaching at Morgan Park Academy. We shared good times and not so good times, however, we were always there for each other. My heart goes out to you. My memories are filled with the adventures that we shared.

My deepest sympathy to you.

LOve. Joyce

Hearing of Judy's passing yesterday, I was flooded with memories of the years we worked, played, and lived together. Fresh out of college, we grew into adulthood during our years together at Morgan Park Academy. I will always remember how she could make each event exciting and every person feel special. Rodd and I send our prayers to all of you during this time of sorrow.

My family, Kelley, Amanda and Ryan, will miss Judy greatly. Every time we would see each other, even if much time has passed, she made us feel as close to her as the day we first met. To Rachel and Ryan, we wish for your pain and suffering to be overshadowed by your treasured memories.

Dear Rachel and Ryan,



Your mom will always have a special place in my heart for her kindness, sense of humor, and warmth. She taught my son Jim when she was at MPA. He has great memories of her. We met again when you were enrolled in KinderCare with my two grandchildren: Amanda and Ryan. I am grateful that I knew her. She will be missed.

To the family of Judy Harrison Griffin,



I worked with Judy at Morgan Park Academy when she was pretty fresh out of college. Judy always had a lot of energy and enthusiasm, and we had many fun times together. The faculty and staff at MPA at the time was very social, and Judy played a big part in bringing people together. Although I haven't seen her in many years, I am still shocked and saddened by her loss. I have notified many MPA people (present and former) of this sad news. My deepest condonlences to all of you in this difficult time.



Sincerely, Elaine Gillies, MPA music teacher.
