In 1984 Judith and Roger moved to the Ft.
Worth area so Roger could attend Southwestern Baptist Theological
Seminary. She worked in retail for a couple of years and served as an
administrative assistant before she began working as a home healthcare
assistant in the Ft. Worth area. They moved to Arnett, Oklahoma in 1990
and while Roger pastored the church there Judith obtained her Bachelor's
Degree from Southwestern Oklahoma State University in 1992. In 1995 they
moved back to Ft. Worth and remained there until 2007 when Roger was
tragically killed in an automotive accident. In 2008, Judith moved to
Sayre and began working at Sayre Memorial Hospital as a nurse's aide and
eventually for home healthcare until her health forced her retirement in
2013. Judith enjoyed reading, gardening, taking her grandchildren and
great grandchildren shopping.
