Judith Killam Obituary
Judith Ann Killam, age 80 of Waupun formerly of Markesan, passed away on Thursday, December 11, 2025, at Waupun Memorial Hospital.
Judith was born on October 29, 1945, daughter of Lester and Gladys (Webster) Yunto. Judy graduated from Waupun High School in 1963. She was united in marriage to Glenn Killam on April 5, 1968, at First Reformed Church of Waupun.
Her warm and caring nature touched many. She found immense happiness in the company of her grandchildren, loving them with all her heart. Judy enjoyed playing cards with them, particularly relishing a lively game of Uno. Baking was another one of her proud accomplishments; her family always looked forward to her delicious baked goods. She took joy in passing on her love of baking to her grandchildren, creating sweet memories that they will cherish forever.
A true sports enthusiast, she proudly held the title of the Milwaukee Brewers' #1 fan, and her loyalty for the Green Bay Packers was unwavering. Judy also had a passion for reading, especially enjoying romantic novels. In her leisure time, she found joy tending to her flowers and watching the delightful birds at her feeders.
Judy’s loving spirit and caring demeanor made her a cherished presence in the lives of those around her. She will be dearly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.
Judy is survived by her daughter, Linda Milton; two sons, Scott Killam and Jody (Laurie) Killam; five grandchildren, Jacob Milton and Cheyenne (Juvs) Dizon and Paxton, Gabriel and Viola Killam; one great granddaughter, Isla Dizon; sisters, Sharon (Elton) Posthuma, Donna Nummerdor and Gladys (Dan) Montsma; sisters-in-law, Bev Yunto and Arlene (Art) Vande Berg; brother-in-law, David Killam; nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Glenn Killam in 2013; daughter, Lori Ann Killam; brothers, Henry Yunto and Jerold Yunto and brother-in-law, Kay (Carol) Killam and Lee Nummerdor.
