Dear Wayne and family,
My sincere and deepest sympathy to you and yours on the loss of Julie! As a high school friend I always saw Julie as energetic, cheerful and constant. Even though time has past and contact lost, my heart knows Julie was a wonderful wife, a dear - loving mother and an enduring grandmother. Her love, brilliant smile and bright personality will be a great loss to all who knew her and certainly by those who called her wife, mom, grandmother, daughter, sister...
God's blessings to all.

Julie not only was an amazing and kind woman, but a loving mother-in-law to our daughter. Our daughter loved her dearly. We continue to pray for the Feest family.

We are devastated by the shocking news about Julie. We are sending our sympathy, love and prayers to you, Wayne, and your wonderful children, their spouses and your Grandchildren. This is the most tragic news that I randomly found out todayabout your lovely Julie. We truly had no idea that Julie had been so ill. As college roommates and Pharmacy classmates in Madison, our friendship was an incredible gift, and we were close friends for decades. Busy lives, families and living in different states meant that we didn't see each other for far too many years. Our memories with Julie and Wayne are infamous - even a fabulous trip to my hometown, Knoxville, TN, for the Worlds Fair in 1982 - with great friends, Marlane and Joe Sparks, and Jim and Nancy Schacht. Having Julie around was always a treat, full of laughs, smiles, friendship and love. Heaven has a new angel. Love, Ginny and Roy Wagner - Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin

I worked with Julie for years at St Vincent Carmel. She was one of the sweetest people I know! Always smiling and happy:)

Wayne,
We are very sorry for your loss. We hope you are comforted by the many wonderful memories you had together as a family.

September 19, 2015

Julie, I just heard the news. You have been such a great mother and wife, and it has been such an honor to know a Catholic role model like yourself. I had no idea you were ill, and Faye just texted me to tell me. You were way to young to go, but God had his plans for you, and you are in Paradise now. Someday, you, Wayne, your kids, their kids, and hopefully me, will all be together again. I love you so.
