Mount Horeb - Judith Ann “Judy” Jennings, age 73, of Mount Horeb, passed away on Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2020, at Agrace HospiceCare, after a short battle with cancer. She was born on Oct. 25, 1946, in Rockford, Ill., the daughter of Carl "Arne" Gustafson and Agnes (Fitzgerald) Gustafson. Judy married Michael Jennings on Oct. 8, 1966, at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church in Madison, and they recently celebrated their 54th wedding anniversary.
Judy graduated from Madison West High School in 1964. She worked as a florist, making the most beautiful arrangements. Judy had a great love for flowers, antiques, gardens and her favorite season, summer. She enjoyed traveling and went on girls’ trips to Door County for over 20 years and on many trips up north to Echo Lake in Mercer. She was a caregiver to all, always placing others before herself. Judy’s family was the most important thing to her and her love will always be in their hearts.
Judy is survived by her husband, Michael Jennings; three daughters, Theresa (Dan) Hofstetter, Amy (Greg) Kellesvig and Melissa (Jim) Sirianni; two grandchildren, Andy Kellesvig and Leah Kellesvig; sister, Patty Edgren; and many in-laws, nieces, nephews and friends.
Judy was preceded in death by her mother, Agnes Gustafson; father, Carl "Arne" Gustafson; brother, Carl (Sharon) Gustafson; and brother-in-law, Rodger Edgren.
“I kissed my wonderful wife, Judy, goodbye at Agrace HospiceCare. I told her that I loved her, her daughters loved her, and she would see her mother, father and friends walking hand in hand with Jesus in paradise.”

My heart breaks for you all Melissa, Amy, Theresa and Mike. I am so, so sorry. I have never known someone as giving of themselves as your mom. Judy — and all of you — have been there for our family so many times. She helped console and guide my sister and myself recently through some of the toughest moments of our lives... It's something we can never repay. I have such fond memories of spending time out at the house as a child. Last summer Judy showed our daughter around the corn field and showed off her bunny collection. Please accept all of my condolences, my sympathy and may you find comfort in all the memories you have shared in.
