Judy Cave Whitman DEC 12, 2003
Judy Cave Whitman is probably one of the most amazing performers you will ever see in your lifetime. Having seen MANY, and known a few, please don't just take my word for it. Inspirational, unbelievable, astounding, and many other big words that I can't spell, are just a few of the words that come to mind.

Here's part of the story...

After growing up in West Virginia, Judy attended college in California, majoring in classical piano and voice. Besides getting married, and giving birth, she also found time to perform in Canada, Europe, and all over the United States. She began to go back to her roots from West Virginia, and learned to play guitar, hammered and mountain dulcimers, and autoharp. In spite of several terrible personal tragedies, she kept moving forward. She acquired a second husband ( AFTER the first, not in ADDITION to the first ), and developed an amazing sense of humor. I think of her as a kind of a cross between Barby Holder , since she DOES play hammered dulcimer, and DOES sing really well, and Ray Charles, since she DOES play the piano, and IS blind!

And she definitely won't forget the "reason for the season."
