Dear Bray Family,
I was so saddened to hear the news about Julie. I was Elizabeth's 2nd Grade teacher at Millennium. Julie was such a wonderful, caring mother! She always had a huge smile on her face and the room lit up when she entered. During my year at Millennium I lost my father and Julie was there for me. I cannot put into words the wonderful things she said and did for me. I truly loved Elizabeth and still remember her wonderful family! I pray that you will be blessed by her wonderful memories. You all will be in my prayers!
Lovingly, Barbara Iroler

Julie will remain in my thoughts and memories as a beautiful lady who touched many lives with her beautiful smile and caring heart, but most of all, she will be remembered as a friend, daughter, and a devoted wife; and her greatest role was the one she loved and enjoyed thoroughly--being a wonderful Mother to Elizabeth, Emory, Katherine, and Carter. My thoughts are with you all.

Joyce, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. My memories of Julie always return to when I was in the first grade, you were my teacher and Julie would come to our parties with your Mother. Such a beautiful girl. May you all find comfort knowing she is in the arms of our Lord.

Many of my family members, including myself, were patients of Dr. Carter-Bray. She was always smiling and caring. My thought and prayers go out to the family and friends. The world is a sadder place with the loss of Dr. Carter-Bray.
