“I met Judith about 30 years ago when she started her tenure at the Traverse Area REALTOR board as the operations officer. I was a new real estate agent. Subsequently I became an owner of Sleeping Bear Realty, Inc., now a Century 21 franchise. She was very aware of the real estate industry and all of the facets which affected our area. She helped develop the Boris system for our MLS and was a leader in the industry in the US, not just our part of the national REALTOR system. Judith has always been a fine leader in the community as a regional representative on many boards, including the Traverse Area Chamber of Commerce. I felt very confident that anything Judith set out to accomplish on our behalf would be a marked improvement for our industry. She had a great staff from the beginning of her time at the board and communicated well with her board of directors as well as the member offices of the Traverse Board. She was always available to answer questions and solve problems for her constituents. I am proud to call her a friend as well as a fellow business acquaintance.”

Suzy Voltz, Broker-Owner, C-21 Sleeping Bear Realty
