Judith A. Petersen, age 78, passed away on Saturday, July 6, 2013, at Wheaton-Franciscan All Saints Medical Center. She was born in Racine on November 3, 1934, daughter of the late Irving and Evelyn (Nee: Sorensen) Christensen.
Judith was a graduate of William Horlick High School “Class of 1952.” She was united in marriage to Ronald L. Petersen, who preceded her in death on November 23, 2011. She was a former member of Bethania Lutheran Church. A sports enthusiast, Judith played fast pitch with the Racine Junior Belles in her younger years.
