Judith was born on January 5, 1945 in Marshfield to David and Erma (Karau) Bargander. She attended grade school at Holmes County and Spencer Elementary later graduating from Spencer High School. On June 20, 1964 she was united in marriage to Robert Scheibe at Trinity Lutheran Church in Spencer. Together they raised their three children. Judy was employed at Shopko Department Store in Marshfield with over 28 years of dedicated customer service. She later continued with her love of caring and service to patrons by working at the coffee shop “Starbucks” located in Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield until her retirement in 2011.
She enjoyed her gardening, reading, creating beautiful garden art crafts, playing cribbage and taking an occasional trip or two to the casino. Judy loved traveling to many places in the U.S. especially to Alaska and Mexico. One of her favorite pastimes was cooking and sharing delicious chocolate chip cookies, homemade caramels, jams, jellies and pickles with family and friends. Sitting and talking with friends and neighbors was always a truly simple joy for Judy and she loved every minute of socializing with people.
Judy was a member of Christ Lutheran Church in Marshfield and attended bible class there regularly. She offered her time and talents by volunteering at church as well.
