Judy Minster

Marilyn Gunther lit a candle in memory of Judy Ann Minster

I can't even begin to express how much I will miss Judy. Ruth you raised a fine woman, my life is brighter for having known her. Though, right now the universe seems less brilliant. I want all of you to know that you are in my thoughts. ~Serena

To Judy's parents and family: I had the privilege of taking care of Judy Minster when she was in her 20s. I was a Neurology Resident at the University of Michigan at the time and I took over her health care sometime around the year 1971 or 1972. She was supposed by other doctors to have an illness called spinocerebellar degeneration. I didn't believe that was the cause of her case. I got her old records and searched until I found a possible explanation tha we could treat. We studied Judy and found she was deficient in certain vitamins. We gave her those vitamins and she got better! Her vision got better and her walking and other ctivities improved remarkably. It was one of the major highlights of my career as a doctor to see her get closer to normal at each visit. Her case was presented in Texas when she came to visit me in San Antonio. I am so pleased to find out this evening that she remained in good health until her death at age 68 and traveled throughout the USA and around the world! If possible please call me at 402-312-5431 and I would love to learn more about Judy's life! John M. Bertoni MD PhD 444 Riverfront Plaza #903 Omaha NE 68102
