Judy Bremer-Taxman
Judy Bremer-Taxman (née Langsdorf) passed away peacefully at home on February 15th , 2026 at the age of 81. She was born in St. Louis on October 1st, 1944.
Judy was predeceased by her husband Paul Taxman, her children Paige and Jef Bremer, sister Barbara Langsdorf, brother Robert Langsdorf, cousin Carol (like a sister), and her parents Arthur and Edna Langsdorf.
Judy touched many people in her life and will lovingly be remembered by them as well as by cousins Dennis (Clydea) Hampel, cousin Mike (Linda) Kalinowski, sister-in-law Keri Kolb, niece Rachel Kolb, brother in-law Philip (Maria) Taxman, nieces and nephews, adopted families Curt Baumgartner, Ted Constantin, the Nguyens (Jennifer, Lily, Kevin, Michael, Brittany), Lisa Ochiltree, and Sue Myers. Judy had wonderful neighbors and loving caregivers.
Judy was a busy lady raising two children and having successful careers in several area over the years. She helped develop Kennelwood Pet Resort, owned two grooming salons, owned a stencil shop, traveled worldwide doing motivational speaking engagements through Toastmasters International, and was instrumental in helping her husband Paul open and run his business.
Like her mom, Judy was a very kind soul who lived through many tragic losses. Through their faith, they were both able to make everyone around them feel loved and special!
Judy will be missed by so many, but always in our hearts!
On behalf of Judy donations, can be made to the Humane Society. A celebration of life will be scheduled at a later date.
Judy is one of those people you meet and you don’t forget. Even though she had a lot of adversity in her life, she was caring and loving to everyone around her. She loved her beautiful home, but she also liked to get out for a ride, or go to antique stores to find new treasures! When I met her we hit it off immediately. We found we had so many things in common. I’m going to miss our conversations and our visits, but I know she’s having a beautiful reunion with her family she missed for so many years. Her faith in God was amazing and very inspirational. I know when each of her loved ones is called Home Judy will be there with that cute smile and big hug for each one. Until we meet again! Love & miss you my friend! Thank you for being you!
Grandma Judy officially adopted me when I was about 7 years old, along with my three siblings. She always said she had dreamed of having grandchildren and believed it was a sign when she walked into a nail salon one day and saw the four of us there with our parents.
From that moment on, we became family—not by blood, but by love. We spent almost every year together after that celebrating holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries together, creating memories that will always stay with us.
Grandma Judy has a special way of seeing the good in everyone. The kindness, love, and lessons she shared with us will stay in our hearts and will one day be passed down to her great-grandchildren.
