Judy Stensland, 84 of Oregon Ohio, passed away peacefully on Thursday, August 14, 2025 at Hospice of Northwest Ohio Perrysburg. Judy was born in Toledo, Ohio on September 30, 1940 to Frederick K. and Margaret A. (Dean) Willard. She was a 1958 graduate of Waite High School. Judy was a member of Faith United Methodist Church.
Judy was a diligent, dedicated Administrative Assistant who retired at age 78 from her job at Lucas County Domestic Relations Court. In her retirement, she volunteered for various duties with her church and condo association. Judy looked forward to the Waite Ladies Luncheon every month and was treasured by her high school friends, especially those life long friends from grade school.
