It has been almost a month since I lost my "birthday buddy". She was a grandmother to me longer than my own grandparents. As I remember the past thirty years of Nana memories and look at pictures of my children with their great-grandmother I see the love and devotion she had for her family and her love of life and the Mets. The life lessons she has passed down will be honored always. My life has been blessed in knowing and loving her.

Dear Fran and Jeanette when we think about your mother it always brings a smile to our faces. She had a laugh that was contagious,and we always enjoyed her company. Joanne and I always called her Aunt Julia, I think that expresses the love and respect we had for her. She was a good and dear friend to our mother. When I think of the two of them together well lets just say they were quite a pair. My sister Joanne and I wish to extend our sympathies to both your families. Aunt Julia will be missed.

Fran and Jeanette,
you both certainly know how I felt about your mother. She was like another mother to me. Sleeping over with you girls, I can't forget lentil soup and tuna on Friday nights. She was always an important person in our lives. My mother had much affection for her and it carried down to me. She was always sweet with me, and that is the truth. My children also cared so much for her, especially my son Joseph. I could go on and on about her, we have missed her dearly since she left.

Dear Fran and Family: I only met your mother once, but she was so bouncy and alive, I thought she was so very lively. This is by far a great lose for you and your family and I wish you all my very deep sympathy and prayers.

My fondest memories of Julia were her saying" exactly your a Perrotta".We always talked about things that were important to us, the family. When I watch baseball I always think of you. Give my love to everyone that we've lost.I will miss you very much. Love Louise

Julia was a great lady and very special. She had a zest for life and living. I have wonderful memories of our Brooklyn bowling days and family get-togethers in New Jersey for Thanksgiving. It is an honor for me to have been a part of her life and Chris'.

Brooklyn and N.C. are much sadder places now that Julia is not there to keep things lively.
May God rest her soul.

I will miss you very much. To me she was a very loving and giving person. We had good times when we spent the night at her house. I think she enjoyed it when we were there. Love You, Phyllis

I lost my biological Mom as a high school teenager. Julia was every bit a Mom to me from the moment I married her daughter Fran (45 years ago). There were very few gray areas in Mom's life things were either black or white. In other words no BS. One of the things I loved most was her ability to talk baseball. She really understood the game as well as any man. With tons of love, Michael

My Nannie she died May 21, 2007 {4:00 am} She was a fantastic woman and there will not be a day that goes by where she will not be missed. Everyday I will think of her at some point in my day. All the times she would play W.A.R. with me. {The Card Game} Good times....very good times :) I remember when I would pretend to cheat just so she would yell at me. Since it made me laugh so hard when she did. She would say something like "Brittannnny what are you doing you can't look at that yet, thats cheating!" It makes me sad knowing she won't be living again, but at the same time it sort of puts my soul at rest....knowing she can relax and she is up there playing with my brother, and our family pet members all of them, and also her husband.....Great Great Great Great Grandpa Chris =] She was a good teacher to me and I will not forgot anything about her EVER! Be it her gentle smile....her peaceful eyes, her great sense of style or her comedy. Her personality was something extremely unique. I wish though that some how some way I could have been able to spend more time with her than I did. I hope that when I'm older, I still follow all my wild dreams but at the same time I hope that I am as good of a person and happy as my nannie was. Juliet<3 I love you and may god watch over you and I hope to feel your presence with me when you look down from the deep blue sky to check up on the rest of our family and I. Hoping you are at rest and Peace. Please know we all miss you so very much. All the great things me and you did together...wasn't it fun?! I think it was. Me and you sometimes would go shopping together, we would take walks when it was sunny and warm outside, sometimes you would even accompany me to the pool and watch as I tried to entertain you =] and that time where i filmed where you lived when you were in South Carolina living in that cozy home of yours in the complex "The Woods." I remember watching what I filmed with you and the rest of our family afterworlds and how we laughed. It was fun to do. We would talk alot and so much more. Nothing will ever be the same without you here. I love you <3 There is only one thing i truly regret....and thats my promise to you. I never followed through. I promised you that the next time you would see me, my nails would be long and healthy and unbitten.....but yet here i am and they are bitten extremely low.... I am determined to follow out my promise to you and stop biting them. I plan on doing so starting right now this very minute

She was a tough cookie and a great Nanny. I am grateful Katie and Zack had a chance to know her and to see her often. We'll miss her a lot.
