Judith Ann “Judy” Marina Peters (nee Wenninger), age 73, passed away with her family by her side on Saturday afternoon, October 15, 2022.

She is also survived by her brother Donald (Shari) Wenninger, sisters Sue Radtke, sister Jayne (Randy) Steiner, siblings-in-law Anne Wenninger, Joan Marie Peters, Kathy (Al) Maday, Mary Ellen (Ray) Mathieu, Gene (Diane) Peters and Mark (Lynn) Peters .

Judy is preceded in death by, her husband Anthony, children Stephen, Jeffery, Sarah, her parents, Jacob, and Genevieve Wenninger, in-laws Alphonse, and Erna Peters, her brother, Bill, sister Mary, and brothers-in-laws, Bruce Radtke and Paul Mamerow.
A love for animals Judy provided great compassion and care to her dog Ernie. He was always by her side as a protector and companion. The love they had for each other was true. That diligence and care was renowned, which one could taste in her 7 layer JELL-O. She would spend hours making for her loved ones to enjoy at family gatherings and holidays.
A woman of great faith, she blended her love of Christ with her passion for teaching to children in the CCD program for many years, and to adults in the RCIA classes at Holy Angels. Judy had a passion for helping those seeking help in the Catholic Faith. Always charitable, Judy participated with her aunt Angie in the “Quilting B”, a group of ladies at Cabrini who would make quilts to sell, all proceeds going to charities and the church.
One not to take orders, Judy was a leader and brought her strength and determination to Walgreens where she managed the Cosmetic department for many years in several different stores.
Judy was never shy to spend whatever she had on needs of others, especially loved ones.
Judy will be missed, and though she has passed, she will be remembered as a loving Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt and Friend. The love, faith and perseverance will live on for generations in all of those with whom she shared her life.
