Judy was born on December 3, 1943 in the Mankato hospital to Phillip and Muriel (Anderson) Buckholtz. She attended high school in Mapleton, MN and continued her education at Pillsbury Baptist Bible College in Owatonna, MN and studied elementary education at Mankato State University. At this point she took her 1st teaching job at Mountain Lake Christian Day School as a 5th grade teacher. It was at that time that she met her husband. Stan and Judy were married on August 18, 1967. In the almost 53 years of marriage they had 3 children and 14 grandchildren. Because she had asked Jesus to forgive her sins and to be her savior at a young age she was able to influence many lives beyond her immediate family through youth group and Sonshine Singers at Carson Mennonite Church in Delft, MN, Trinity Singers, substitute teaching in many area schools, numerous guitar, piano and voice students, 13 years of preschool teaching, and 20+ years of leading and organizing the Mountain Lake Gospel Singers. She was able to boldly proclaim Christ because of 2 Timothy 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and love and a sound mind. She is survived by her husband Stan of Mountain Lake, MN, her children Cindy (John) Gardiner of Mountain Lake, MN, Bryan (Carolyn) of Mountain Lake, MN, Kim (Bryce) Sundve of Litchfield, MN, her siblings Margaret Duerksen of Delft, MN, Larry (Frances) Buckholtz of Mapleton, MN Suzanne Sommer of Mapleton, MN along with 14 grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. Judy was preceded in death by her parents Phillip and Muriel Buckholtz.
