To all the Happs,

I will always remember Julia's witty sense of humor. I would go with my mom to visit her when I was in town, and I was still amazed at her ability to recognized a joke or some sarcasm & laugh appropriately. She even tried to get her remarks in as well. Still makes me laugh now! I will carry fond memories of her with me, and will be thinking of all of you.

At Mundelein College Julie Case was a true moral leader, one who was universally kind, loving, supportive to her fellow students, the Sisters and other teachers. She always brought hope to each experience. Her faith was unshaken. Her love was universal. May she now rest in peace. May you honor her in your love for each other. Peace
