Judith A. (Judie) Stevenson, 79, passed away at Banner Baywood Hospital in Mesa, Az on June 22, 2021 from complications of pulmonary fibrosis. Judie was diagnosed sometime in the late 1990s with both lupus and sjogren’s syndrome. Both of these diseases are autoimmune diseases. The doctors believe that either of these two diseases could have been the cause of her PF, but they are not 100% sure. She was on medication to effectively control both diseases. Judie was originally diagnosed with PF in 2007. Her pulmonologist immediately put her on twice daily treatments with a nebulizer machine, which converts prescribed medication into mist to help clear the airways. She continued with this treatment for the next 7 years. In 2014 Judie’s blood oxygen levels started to decrease and her doctor indicated she should start supplemental oxygen treatments. He also indicated that moving to a lower elevation might be a good substitute. At that time we lived in Prescott, Az. We decided to move to Florence, Az which is 4100 feet lower in elevation. That really worked, as she could now go for walks in the neighborhood which she couldn’t do before without breathing issues. Because of the move, a new pulmonologist had to be found. She looked at Judie’s records and thought the diagnosis was wrong. The average life expectancy for someone diagnosed with PF is 4 to 7 years. She retested Judie and concluded the diagnosis was correct and she indeed had PF. The doctor told Judie you are an anomaly. In other words, you are here, but statistically you shouldn’t be. She continued with the twice daily nebulizer machine treatments. In June 2019 Judie was diagnosed with valley fever, which is an airborne fungus that affects the lungs and is primarily found in southwest desert states. She continued treatment for valley fever until February 2020. At that time it was determined to be under control. However, in January 2021 a new CT scan showed it had reemerged and she was put on a new medication. In April 2021 Judie’s blood oxygen levels were starting to decrease again and she was hospitalized to stabilize her oxygen levels and was put on supplemental oxygen upon discharge. In early June 2021 her blood oxygen levels were getting worse and the pulmonologist ordered more exhaustive tests, which resulted in a diagnosis of norcardia, which is also a fungus that affects the lungs and she was put on a new medication. Two weeks later, after her blood oxygen levels continued to deteriorate, she was admitted to Banner Baywood Hospital, where she passed away on June 22, 2021. Judie was a beautiful person, both inside and out, and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her and loved her. This narrative about Judie’s journey with pulmonary fibrosis will hopefully give everyone an idea how devastating this progressIve disease can be, especially in the later stages Our hope is that any contribution to the PF Foundation will help find better treatments that will ultimately cure this disease.

Judy Erskine Please donate in the name of Judy Erskine, so that a cure and/or treatments to prolong life for sufferers of this terrible disease can be found. Judy had a zest for people and travel. Despite being diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis some three years ago she managed to continue her passions for family, friends, and seeing the world. A beloved mother and grandmother, she continued to host Sunday family dinners and make time for her grandchildren. She regularly had lunch with friends and kept an active social calendar including Neil Diamond fans, Orange Elks, church events, and fellow travelers. Travel was both her hobby and career, and she served others as a travel agent for over 30 years. Cruising down the Danube and visiting other exotic locations with friends, her pace may have slowed, but her determination to continue a normal life was unmatched. Judy was one of the rarer diagnosis in that she had none of the inherent risk factors: environmental exposure, smoking, etc. that are typical in most Pulmonary Fibrosis cases.

Juliet Bultman - wife, sister, mother, and grandmother - loved by many near and far. She has touched many lives, more than she would ever know. We loved her sweet demeanor, strong will, and loving nature (not to mention her style!). She was petite, but oh-so-mighty! Being the survivor that she was, she fought pulmonary fibrosis for 10 years, living her life the way she wanted to. As a tribute, her family appreciates your love and support by donating to this worthy cause. ___________ A mother’s love is always with her children. Losing a mother is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can know. But her goodness, her caring, and her wisdom live on – like a legacy of love that will always be with you. —Unknown

Karabed Shirikchian KARABED (GARY) SHIRIKCHIAN BORN 12-22-1937 DIED 04-19-2018For those of us fortunate enough to have known Gary, he will be sadly missed,but, he will live on in our hearts and memories. He was an unwavering Husband, Father, and Grandfather. For Gary, his work and his family was his life and he lived a rich and fruitful life. From his birth in Aleppo, Syria, his marriage to Nver in Armenia, and his final journey to the United States with his family, you might say that he was well traveled. His family came to California financially poor, but family rich. His love of family and determination to succeed in his new homeland brought him the success he so desired. Gary, is the shining example of what made the United States of America great. He was a full blooded American through and through of Armenian descent. He was tough and kind. He could make you laugh and then make you think. He succumbed to Pulmonary Fibrosis at the age of 80. Considering his life, it was well lived. What he accomplished in 80 years is what most of us could only dream of accomplishing. REST IN PEACE, GARY WE LOVE YOU..........................................
