She opened Judy’s Café in Osage in 2005. She was forced to close the café a few years later due to health issues. She stayed in Osage, helping to care for her parents until their deaths, and until her own death. Judy loved to bake for friends and family, with her pies being an easy favorite. She was kind of a recluse preferring to stay home. She spent many holidays with family in Gillette including nieces and nephews, then their children; where she chased everyone out of the kitchen so she could cook in peace. Her brother-in-law, Bill would sneak in as many seasonings as he could especially to the turkey stuffing. She was a prolific reader, her books taking up any available space in her home. Judy is survived by her sister, Sally (Bill) Singleton of Gillette; brother, Joe Eutsler of Osage; nieces, and nephews and their children and cousins.
