In loving memory and celebration of life for Judith Margaret (Rosenberg) Steffens.
Born October 6, 1939, Judy left us peacefully at home with family by her side on Dec. 20, 2022, at the age of 83.
Judy loved to garden, enjoyed watching her birds and other wildlife. Her favorite time of the year was the fall season. She would take the kids on a road trip to see all the beautiful fall colors. Decorating for Christmas was also a joy of hers, which included numerous Christmas lights; she especially loved hiding the green pickle in the tree. She was extremely talented and enjoyed cooking, crocheting, crafts, and of course making all of these incredibly intricate cakes for weddings and occasions. She was dedicated to church and played organ for the choir for many years.
She is survived by her husband Gary (Kelly) Steffens of 64 years. Their children, Fonda (Scott) Fischer, Kelli (Kory) Lax, Gary (Carole) Steffens, Matt (Cathy) Steffens, Chris (Sean) Gabriel, David (Shanda) Steffens, Daniel (Amy) Steffens, Jessica (Alvin) Noche.
