Roughly 80 family, friends and community members came together Tuesday at the Central Texas State Veterans Cemetery in Killeen to pay their final respects to Jim and Judy Kilpatrick.
Jim Kilpatrick, a retired Army major and sitting member of the Killeen City Council, died Jan. 5 at age 74 due to complications from COVID-19. His wife, Judy, died Dec. 15, 2020, of heart failure.
âWe are so grateful and honored that we can tell other people about Jim and Judy, and the mighty impact they had on us and countless others,â said Pastor Marc George, a longtime friend of the Kilpatricks. âOf their selfless service and the sacrifices they made for many years, through 37 years of marriage. As Genesis 1 says, âA man alone is not good.â But now they are together in Paradise, and for that, we are grateful.â
