Born on October 29, 1949, to Cletus Leo and Gerlinda Marie Harlasz Diggs, this beautiful, creative soul loved nature and animals with a passion for birds. She shared her love of creatures great and small with those around her. Judy''s many artistic talents included writing, painting, sketching, and crafting. She used these talents to give back to her community by creating amazing trees for the Festival of Trees.
