Judy Virginia Lauterbach
1944 - 2018

Judy Virginia Lauterbach was a wife, mother, and grandmother, but most importantly, a child of God. She faithfully served the Lord and was a light to everyone who crossed her path. Some may wonder why she did not experience the miracle of healing but we believe God chose her to be our miracle of His Amazing Grace through her loving and encouraging spirit.

She was a member of the Community Heights Alliance Church in Newton, Iowa where she was a longtime Sunday School superintendent and ladies Bible study leader. She was on the organizing committee for the Crisis Pregnancy Center of Central Iowa, Just Give Me Jesus, and founding board member of the Family Leader.
