[Dialogue] Judy Hickey passes

[Ellie Stock]

 We were sorry to learn of Judy's death.  We worked with Judy and Carl when they were priors of the Rochester House and we were Assoc. Pastors of Dewey Avenue Presbyterian Church, part of the Rochester Galaxy, a few blocks away.  She exemplified the servant spirit and quietly but with joyful energy worked to help facilitate courses and Rochester Region and Dewey Avenue/Maplewood community events.  A couple of remembrances...for one RS1 course, we arrived at the church site and discovered that whoever locally was supposed to be the enablement didn't show up.  We quickly set up the meeting room. Then, Judy drove into town, found a grocery store, bought food for the weekend, and proceeded to prepare all the meals--everything coming off on time without a further hitch.  She loved music and joined other regional colleagues' singing, with the Dewey Avenue choir, the Hallelujah Chorus during the Easter service.  The song "Here Am I Send Me" was written and sung during the House breakfast collegium as a send-out for Judy and Carl when they were re-assigned in 1975.  We give thanks for the gift of Judy's life and remember Carl, who has been her incredible caretaker over the years of her decling health, and their family in prayer as they mourn her death and also celebrate her life.

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is a sad time to tell you of the passing of Judy Hickey last night.  Carl called this Christmas Eve morning, to tell us that Judy breathed her last breath last night.  Her funeral will be held on Friday, December 30th at 11:00 AM at Grace United Methodist Church,  5407 Charles Street, Baltimore, MD. 

  

We wish peace and love to Judy and the Hickey family.
