Judith A. "Judy" Olson, aged 84, of Green Bay, was lovingly called home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus, on December 1, 2025, surrounded by her devoted family. Born on November 2, 1941, in Brussels, Wisconsin, she was the cherished daughter of the late Arthur and Leona "Lena" (Reince) Neuville and a proud graduate of Brussels High School, Class of 1959.

In a beautiful testament to enduring love, Judy united in marriage with her high school sweetheart, Donald "Don" Olson, on July 2, 1960, marking the beginning of a 65-year journey filled with joy and companionship. Together, they served their Lord at Interfaith Fellowship, now known as Living Hope Church.

Judy's greatest passion was children; her deepest desire was to embrace motherhood and nurture a family. She and Don welcomed three beloved children into their lives, and their family grew even further with the blessing of nine grandchildren. Judy's commitment to caring for children extended beyond her own, as she touched the lives of countless little ones through her in-home daycare "Children First", a calling that spanned four decades.

Known for her generous spirit and delicious recipes, Judy's cooking and baking were legendary, and her treasured recipes will continue to bring warmth to family gatherings for generations to come. Whether cheering on loved ones at sporting or theatre events or sharing tender moments with her family, it was in their presence that Judy found her greatest joy.

She is survived by her devoted husband, Don; their three children: Carrie (Ken) Harpell, David (Sandra) Olson, and Daniel (Sheila) Olson; along with her nine grandchildren: Samuel (Brandie) Harpell, Madeline (Max) Mainwood, Ian Harpell, Greta (fiancé, Joey Harris) Olson, Bennett (fiancée, Grace Purcell) Olson, Eli Olson, Grace Olson, Andrew Olson, and Lily Olson. Judy also leaves behind her siblings, Lee Neuville, Lon (Vicki) Neuville, and Irene (Joe) Hucek, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

Judy was preceded in death by her parents, Arthur and Lena; five siblings: Joyce (Calvin) Eichinger, Morris (Dallas) Neuville, Curtis (Sidella) Neuville, Carol (Ken) Skarvan, and Louis (Theresa) Neuville; a sister-in-law, Barbara Neuville and brother-in-law, Frank Jerabek.

A celebration of Judy's life will take place at Living Hope Church, located at 1840 W. Mason St., Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Friday, December 12, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM, followed by a funeral service at 11:30 AM.
