Judith A. Maple's Obituary
Judy Maple, 74, of Wild Rose passed away peacefully at her home in the early hours of Saturday, July 13, 2024. Judy was born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin on June 13, 1950. In Early life Judy learned how to adjust to a household surrounded by five younger brothers. Remarkedly she not only thrived in this environment, but learned the fine art of diplomacy, which helped her a good deal later in life.
She graduated from Wild Rose High School in 1968 and then proceeded to go to Milwaukee to take further studies at Patricia Stevens Career College. After graduating with secretary studies, Judy began a secretarial career which took her into the legal and elder care field of work.
Upon her return to Wild Rose, as a resident Judy undertook various job responsibilities that included such things as bartending and auctioneering duties while ending her last career activities by operating her own real estate business. She also found time to conduct volunteer duties with the Wild Rose Lioness’s Club, which she took great pride in. Additionally, Judy was a voracious reader and was known to stay up until the wee hours of the morning to finish a good book.
Her friends, which she kept close, were rewarded with a strong sense of loyalty and support on her part. The significant men in her life, Ray Maple and John Stoltz, preceded her in death. Judy had a strong love for her dogs and the brought her much joy over the years.
She was also preceded in death by her parents, Perry Arnold Carter and Dorothy Jane Carter ad sister Donna Jean. She is survived by her five brothers David N. Carter (Hope) of Martin, Michigan, Steven P. Carter (Joan) of Hammond, Wisconsin, Michael J. Carter of Wild Rose, Thomas A. Carter of Redgranite, and Brian T. Carter (Anne) of Mankato, Minnesota.
