Judith “Judy”
Strohofer
Nov 14, 1940 — Nov 20, 2025
In loving memory of Judith "Judy" Strohofer, who was a treasured wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and sister who peacefully passed away on November 20, 2025, at the age of 85. Born in Cincinnati, OH, she was the beloved daughter of the late August "Gus" and late Barbara "Barb" Speller. Her warmth and kindness touched the lives of all who had the privilege to know her.
Judy was the beloved wife of almost 62 years to Donald "Don" Strohofer, Sr, together they created a loving and nurturing home for their children, Donn Strohofer and Terri (Bruce) Medlin who will forever carry her spirit within their hearts. As a grandmother, she was a source of love and laughter for her grandchildren, Adiene (Joe) Rasper, Aaron Medlin, Andrew (Sara) Medlin, Alana (Mike) Blasewitz. Her love extended to her great-grandchildren, Ethan Rasper, Owen Rasper, Nora Blasewitz, Michael Blasewitz and Bowen Blasewitz. Judy also shared a special bond with her sister the late Barb (late Ken) Brandstetter. Judy will forever hold a special place in the hearts of her family, and her memory will live on through stories filled with love and laughter.
Judy was known for her adventurous spirit that led her and Don on numerous journeys. Their fond memories of traveling, including many Caribbean and European cruises, that brought them happiness. For 25 years, Judy enjoyed the warmth of the Florida sun, where she spent countless joyful moments at the beach and with her cherished dachshunds. Yet, no adventure compared to those spent surrounded by family who held her heart, and the memories created together will be cherished forever.
