I feel so deprived the chance to have seen your smiling face. I want you to know the joy you brought to my family at all times. You taught me so much about enjoying the little things, the most simple things in life and that simply spending time together is the only thing that is important. My life is so much more complete having had you for the time I had you. KaLynn is heartbroken and it was truly hard on us to tell her but she knows now that you are in Heaven, looking down upon us all. I found some pictures tonight of us all gathered around the table playing Skip-Bo and laughing. From our competitive crossword challenges to my favorite lasagna I will always have a special place in my heart for you. We love you and will never forget what you meant to us. You will always be my grandmother. You will continue to bring a smile to my face and I look forward to laughing with you, once again, when we are brought back together. Until then, go with God. We love you and miss you so much. As we told KaLynn, we have the greatest angel of all to watch over us now. God Bless you, Julie and the wonderful memories you gave us all.

Dearest Julie, I've missed you so much since you were moved to Erie. Our regular chats & lots of laughs, you'll never know how much I've missed that. You always listened & cheered me up when we worked together & got me through some dark days. After you retired we still managed to stay close & you managed to "fit" me into your busy schedule. You were a true bright spot in my life & you'll always remain in my heart. Even though we never got to say goodbye I know that you knew my feelings for you. May you rest in peace Dear Friend.
