Judith Davis dies from injuries receivie The passing of certain individu- als leaves a space in a community that can never be filled. It can be compared only to a fragile piece of crystal which when shattered can never be replaced since it is one of a kind. So it is with the recent death of Judith Davis of Harveys Lake. Like many other residents of that com- munity, Judith Davis was a dedi- cated volunteer giving freely of her time and talents to serve others. But Judy, as she was known to friends, had something more. She had compassion, empathy for others, an eternal cheerfulness and a deep love for children-her own and for others. When they were young Judy gave much of her time to organizations in which her daughter and sons were interested and as they grew older she contin- ued her service to these groups in order to keep them active for oth- ers. Judy loved people and in turn people loved her. She always had a smile and a cheery ‘hello’ for young and old. Her compassion and concern made life more comfort- able for more persons than we shall ever realize. She was not only a member of organizations; when she joined she became an integral part ofan them, such as the Order of Eastern Star, the Plymouth Fire Company No.1 Auxiliary and later the Daniel C. Roberts Fire Company Auxiliary. Judy was a member of the Har- veys Lake Women's Service Club and the Irem Temple Directors Staff-Ladies. She was employed as a manager of the Country Manor Rest Home, Sandy Beach, Harveys Lake, and was a member of the Alderson United Methodist Church. Last Wednesday, Judith A. Davis, RD 3, Harveys Lake, died in Wilkes-Barre General Hospital from injuries incurred in an auto- mobile accident March 7, 1989. She was born Oct. 7, 1941, in Wilkes-Barre, daughter of William Borland of Nanticoke and the late Elvira Dourand Borland. Judith and her husband Wil- liam R.
