Judith Mae Koehler

Judy was placed in God’s loving arms on Tuesday, April 26, 2022. Her devoted husband of 50 years, Jerry was at her side. She passed after a long struggle with Alzheimer’s/Dementia. Judy was born in Wauwatosa, WI to Norman Emanuelson and Margaret Emanuelson (Melville). She graduated in 1957 from Wauwatosa East High School. Preceded in death by her parents and brothers, Richard and Norman (Bud).

Judy is survived by her loving husband Gerald, daughter Debra (Randall) Zblewski, son Thomas (Kolby) Hirth, stepdaughter Kim (Larry) Russell, and stepson Keith (Julie) Koehler. Judy adored and enjoyed her 7 grandchildren: Brian (Jennifer) Zblewski, Darren Zblewski, Rachel (Dustin) Irving, Ana and Elle Russell and Justin and Kyle Koehler. She was a great-grandmother to Declan, Reagan, Ollie, and Eli.

Judy loved to travel. She was very social, enjoyed meeting people, and loved all animals, especially her dogs, Sandy and Tanya. She worked as an executive assistant for several years, eventually retiring from Waukesha Memorial Hospital after 25 years as an Administrator for Cardio/Respiratory.

Judy will be loved and missed by her family, extended family, many friends, and co-workers. She was always willing to help out and took time for a visit or chat no matter how busy she was.

Judy Mae will be inurned at Pine Lawn Cemetery during a private service.

If you choose, a memorial donation in Judy’s name to the Alzheimer’s Association or charity of your choice will be appreciated.
