The family soon moved to Salt Lake City, where Judy spent the first eight years of her life. Then they moved to Pasadena, where she graduated rom Pasadena High School a year early especially to attend USC.

Eventually she an Dave settled down and raised a family in suburban Hacienda Heights fro 1973 -2003. They retired to Murphys Gold Country in 2004. She loved the beauty and character of Calaveras County.
