A couple of the jobs included the telephone company (in their early marriage) and Chick’s pharmacy. However, most people would remember her from the Clark gas station, which she and Eldon managed for many years. Judy loved to knit, sew, and work in the garden. She also enjoyed hunting and fishing. Fishing was her favorite sport, so if you were standing between her and the boat you would have been run over because Judy would drop everything to go fishing.
