Jody was born April 26, 1958, in Marshfield, daughter of Fred and Joyce Krueger. She attended Colby schools and graduated from UW-Eau Claire in 1980. She then began her teaching career as a business education teacher at Slinger High School.

Jody was an enthusiastic and active parent in the West Bend community.

Jody is survived by her loving husband, Steve; and her devoted sons, Jonathan and Jeremy. She is the cherished daughter of Joyce (nee Radeztsky) Krueger; and beloved sister of Jana (Mike) Wagner, Jacci (Jim) Andersen and Jim (Sarah) Krueger.
