Judith "Judy" Wilke, age 67, passed away with her family by her side on September 25, 2024, in Oshkosh, WI. She was born to parents Harold and Marjorie (Becker) Wilke on February 24, 1957, in Portage, WI.
After high school, Judy obtained her associates degree at Mac Murray College in Illinois. She was a Certified Nursing Assistant for over 20 years. Later on, she changed careers to the communications field and worked for MDS until her retirement. She will be remembered for her intelligence, kindness, humor, and laugh that could light up any room.
Judy enjoyed doing crochet projects, crossword puzzles, exploring the farmer's market, reading horror and mystery books, swimming at any lake or waterpark and was an avid Packers fan. More than anything, she loved to spend time with her family and friends.
She is survived by her daughter, Jaime Howe; grandchildren, Joscelyn and Josephine; sister, Sandy (Dale) Burger; close friends, Shawn Tomaschefski, and Karen Holzer; as well as many other extended family members and friends.
Preceding her in death were her parents, Harold and Marjorie (Becker) Wilke.
Per her wishes, a private gathering for family and close friends will take place at a future date.
The family would like to extend a sincere thank you to the staff at Aurora Palliative Care as well as her close friends, Shawn, Jessica and Karen for their care and compassion during this difficult time.
