Judy’s personal papers include her journals, ID cards and name tags from her professional work, school work from when she was in grade school and secondary school, and materials from college. These materials were arranged chronologically when possible. Her journals include musings about hiking and working through certain feelings.

Her letters are divided by personal letters received from friends and family, professional letters from her workplace, letters received concerning her Girl Scout troop or position, and sympathy letters addressed to Honor Heart after Judy’s death. The personal letters are organized alphabetically by the last name of the sender, except for birthday cards, well wishes, and holiday cards which are organized by these respective topics. There is also a group of miscellaneous letters that have non-specific correspondents (first name only), unknown correspondents, or too few letters from a specific person to warrant their own folder. This decision to have miscellaneous letters was done to conserve supplies, and to maintain a highlevel description of materials that is demanded within the scope of the CA State Grant.

The Girl Scout materials include patches and pins, as well as some documents related to workshops and council meetings. The documents are organized chronologically.

Photographs consisted of loose photographs in no particular order, photographs that were still contained in the envelopes holding them after being developed, and photos arranged in albums. When possible, photos were arranged chronologically and marked if there was writing on the back. Photos in their development sleeves were kept together. There were three photo albums that were preserved, two of which are in their original albums, one which was moved into an archival album and archival photo sleeves due to degradation of the original housing.

The clippings and ephemera contain news articles that mention Judy, mostly in regard to Girl Scout achievements or her work at Sangre de Cristo Hospice. These were not organized in any order. The ephemera mostly are printed memorabilia from events during high school. These are organized by event or origin, and then chronologically.
