Mrs G- Julia,
She will be greatly missed !! I think of the wonderful memories as a child and my adult life on how wonderful and loving she was. I can't express on how sad it is to have her gone. I will always remember her smile and her generous heart. She was the best cook around !! Her homemade meatballs, sauce and cookies were the best !!!!!!!!! The best delicious memory.

Auntie Julia made my childhood very special. From hugs and laughter, from great lunches and wonderful smells coming from her kitchen, she always welcomed me with open arms. I grew up across the street from her, and Lilac Terrace was my 2nd home. Aunty Julia's smile was infectious and I loved her spirit. She was a great example of a loving wife, mother and aunt to me. No doubt Uncle Tony welcomed her home to Heaven...and they are together again! God bless you Aunty Julia, and thank you.
