Billy, Carolyn and Family. I am so sorry for your loss of Julia. I have fond memories of her when I was a littl girl. She was so loving and caring. I pray that God will comfort everyone in the difficult days ahead. I love you all so very much. Our "big" Family is down to a "little" Family now,but we know they are all in God's care. As Jason would say, they are smiling down us! We need to hold each other close and share wonderful memories of our beautiful Family.
Love to...
