She fought very hard for over a week but was unable to overcome the injuries she sustained.Our family would like to welcome everyone to a Celebration of Life being held at the Fieldcrest High School gym on Sunday, Nov 19 from 4p to 8p. A Time to Share will be at 7p where anyone who is so inclined is invited to share their experiences with Judy. The funeral mass with be held at St. Patrick's Church at 10a on Monday, Nov 20. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Judy McNamara Memorial Fund for women's athletic scholarship at Fieldcrest High School. Checks may be sent to Connie Ketchmark, 1029 Maple Ave, Minonk Il 61760. We would also like to thank everyone for the wonderful and widespread outpouring of support at this time. Judy made a huge contribution to the community, to the high school and to the numerous teams that she played on and coached over the years. She is sorely missed. Thank you,
