Coming from a strong polish and devout catholic family the parties in the basement were a huge part of keeping the whole family together. She loved to dance Jigging to polkas and a deep love for the malt shop oldies. She knew the words to every song. As a young woman Judy enrolled at the beauty school in Milwaukee while working part time in retail at Gimbels. She always had the best bouffant hairdo in town. Shortly after the marriage her health battles began requiring invasive surgery which resulted in her losing eyesight in her left eye. That never slowed Judy down her ambitious personality with four wonderful children to raise her focus was them. Being raised with a large family herself seven brothers and sisters. After moving to Ringle she worked as a CNA caregiver at Kennedy Park in Weston. She was driven to always help people. Moving to their forever home in Hatley in 1986 they put down roots across from Pike Lake.

After her children were grown, she enjoyed canning and cooking on the farm with Donna and extended Davidowski family. Card parties were a must, and you had to have thick skin playing with these strong-willed ladies. She absolutely loved reading always at the library or bookmobile reading her romance novels from all eras and sewing. In her golden years she enjoyed birdwatching, doing puzzles, crosswords while spending time with her family and watching church every Sunday.

Judy was transferred to Aspirus Hospital where she later passed and experienced her greatest reward when she gracefully went into the arms of the lord with "her Johnny", Leo and Wanda waiting to warmly embrace and welcome her.
