Dear Mr. and Mrs. McCartney,
I do not know if you will remember me but Judy (as I always called her)and I did the Equine Care course at Algonquin College in 1980-81. I was so shocked and saddened to see that Judy had died. I wanted to tell you a strange thing happened this morning when I found out. This morning (Sunday, July 19th), I got up early to go ride my horse. I was brushing my teeth, when out of the blue Judy came in to my mind. I have not seen Judy now in numerous years. I thought how it has been so long since I last saw her at a horse show. In my mind I thought if I saw Judy, I would say "Judy, it's Pam Houwing" and in my mind I almost heard Judy saying "of course I know it's you,Pam". The thought went away as quickly as it came and I gave it no notice. On the way to the farm, I stopped for a coffee and while drinking it, I read my Sunday paper. For some odd reason I always read the obituaries and there was Judy's! What a complete shock and so strange that 20 minutes earlier I had that thought.
Judy and I were best of friends at Algonquin. I had more laughs and fun with her than any of the other students. For many years after the course, I did not see Judy until 1 week before her marriage to Paul which she so kindly invited me to her reception party. Then after that I would see her at the tack shop and at horse shows when she was promoting her magazine which I subscribed to for many years. I was always in awe of her abilty to succeed at things. Judy was such an intelligent girl with a great initiative. I always loved what she did with the donkeys - those races were such fun for everyone who got to do it or just watch. Only Judy could come up with that idea.
Whatever Judy faced - from serious accidents to cancer - she face it with such a great attitude. I still can remember her laughing as she told me the story of a horse falling on her and at the hospital they were practically reading her her last rights. She always found humour in her life!
Please know that even though Judy and I did no always keep in touch, whenever we did run into each other, I always felt such a close friendship to her. Why she popped into my head on Sunday morning, I can not explain, but I hope it was Judy saying "remember me". I can not imagine what immense sorrow you are going through, but please know that you, your family, and Judy are are all in my thoughts.
From an old friend of Judy,
Pam Houwing

A Little Donkey Came To Me
In Memory of Judith McCartney
A little donkey came to me, last night in my dream.
He placed his head in my lap and tears flowed from his eyes, he said they were tears of happiness and I began to cry.
He told me of his friend and how he had waited for her to come back home and how worried that he was, for the ones that were left alone.
He told me of her happiness when she had seen his face and how her dog and horse were there waiting for this day, and how God had helped her through this time and how he would help us do the same.
He told me of the suffering back on earth and how people had used his name, big ears, jack ass to name just a few, but how when he got to heaven his suffering was through.
He said that his friend had fed other big eared creatures too, how she knew exactly what to-do.
When others turned their backs and laughed and called them hurtful names , she had placed her arms around them and hugged them really well , and how even when her worries, were more than most should bear, she’d always given them shelter from all the harm out there.
And because she’d done all this, he’d waited for so long.
Lastly he told me how, he had come to take her home.
Upon his back he said because she was too tired to go on.
So I kissed and hugged him as we said good bye, wishing him a safe journey and that I would try not to cry.
As he walked away I heard him say , try never to forget. God, gives us many gifts, they can come in different ways. Be sure you do the following for everyone that is met.
When you see others along your life’s path.
Do not stand and judge, or say what you think if they are hurtful words. Help one of Gods creations and be kind to all you meet, you will have a better day.
Be a real good listener have a heart and hear what they say.
That is why God gave me my big ears and why I came today.

Dear Jean and Jeff and Family, My deepest sympathy for the loss of our Judith. Although she has left us, she will always be with us in our hearts forever. Her spirit and memories will never leave us. My heart goes out to you. With caring thoughts at this difficult time, sending you strength and love, Barbara I once read about the starts in the sky: " Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in Heaven, where the love of our lost ones pour through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy and have found peace"
