God will be sure to see that you can view Italy from the best of all views. Look down on us and pray that we live half the life that you did.

Julie,
You are an inspiration to all. We had some wonderful times at Gonzaga and God knows we did enough crazy things. All memories never to be forgotten. So happy I got to see you in October. Awesome reunion. I know you are looking down on all of us and giving us your blessing and love. Back at you.
God bless you and I will remember you always.
love,

I take comfort in knowing that you are now walking with the angels. I cherish our moments at G.U. together and will hold close to my heart the wonderful reunion weekend we recently shared. Rest in Peace my friend.

Oh Julie, we will miss your laugh and your bright smile! You fought a courageous battle to stay with us for as long as you could. Now you are with The Lord in His arms and free from pain. We are better people for knowing you. Our comfort and prayers to Theresa and all. Love, Jean and Bill Gray

Julie,
You will be greatly missed. All the times we stayed up talking, sharing a glass of wine, talking about our next vacation or next trip to the boat, or even talking about my next softball game, which you loved to watch me play, well I will miss all those moments. Your loving brother-in-law David
