Ada school children are wishing Judy Williams a happy summer.
There is a poster of her that hangs in the elementary hallway. It reads, “Help Grandma Judy Get Ready for Summer.” The kids add stickers to the poster, like an inflatable duck, to signify summer fun. In the poster, Judy is found near a pond relaxing in a lounge chair, donning a summer hat, sitting under a multicolored umbrella, and wearing unique sunglasses.
