Judith M. Krause Obituary

Judith Madeline Krause was called home on Thursday, April 15, 2021.  She was born on June 23, 1940 to George and Esther Pervisky from La Crosse.  Judy was the youngest of 9 children.  As a child she and her brother Jim enjoyed singing to others.  She had a beautiful voice.  She was also a talented sketch artist and an avid bowler.  Even though she did not graduate High School, later in life she went on to achieve getting her GED. Judy was married to Roger Krause and they had 7 children together.  Later they divorced and she met Paul (Duffy) Daffinson and they remained together for over 30 years until his death. Throughout her life she had many different jobs ranging from waitress, to private housekeeping as well as working for Gundersen until her retirement.  This allowed her to spend more time pursuing her favorite hobby and passion, gardening.  People would say that she could plant a stick and it would grow into something beautiful. She was preceded in death by her parents George and Esther, her siblings Jack, Bud, Jim, Lorriane, Phyllis, Betty, Mary and Patricia.  Her grandsons William and Joshua. She is survived by her children Julie (Scott) Cornish, Debra (Larry) Turnbull, Roger Krause Jr, Kimberly Lang, Mark (Betty) Krause, Susan Krause, Richard (Angel) Krause and several grandchildren and great grandchildren of whom she loved dearly. The family would like to thank the Staff at Benedictine Manor for all the genuine love and support in taking care of her. A private family memorial service will be held at the Dickinson Family Funeral Home.  A celebration of life will also be held at a later date.  In lieu of flowers memorials may be given to Benedictine Manor Activities and Garden Department as Judy loved creating many crafts and enjoyed the garden activities there.  Online condolences may be given to the family at www.dickinsonfuneralhomes.com
