We would like to extend our sincere condolences to our friends at Whitewater Eye Centers as they grieve the loss of the exceptional, Dr. Judy Risch.
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the passing of Dr. Judy D. Risch (Smith).
For 34 years, Dr. Risch was a devoted member of the Whitewater Eye Center family. She was not only an exceptional optometrist, but truly one of the kindest and most thoughtful people we have ever had the privilege of knowing. A one-of-a-kind human, Dr. Risch touched countless lives through her dedication to her patients, her compassion for others, and the genuine care she showed to everyone around her.
We extend our deepest condolences to her husband, Randy, her daughters, Kelsey and Kiley, and her entire family. Our hearts are also with our Whitewater staff, our patients, and all those whose lives were touched by Judy throughout the years.
We will share information regarding upcoming visitations and services as it becomes available. In the meantime, we invite everyone to wear pink this week in Judy’s memory as we come together to honor and celebrate the incredible woman she was.
If you would like to share a photo or memory of Dr. Risch, please send it to [email protected]. We would be honored to remember Judy through the many lives and memories she leaves behind.
Rest peacefully, Dr. Risch. You will be deeply missed and forever remembered🩷
