Hi Julie, I love and miss you, your laughter, and fun loving spirit; you always made the best of all situations. Paul, Trisha, Kristen, and Kevin are doing well; it has been tough for them though...you are and will always be sorely missed by them and all your family and friends. You'll be happy to know, the Red Sox won the World Series again this year 2007, the Patriots are undefeated at 13-0, and the Celtics are the best team in the NBA. Oh yeah, Clemens still isn't retired yet...or is he? Paul tells me your mom and Monica are doing okay too; you had such a positive impact on everyone that life has been a tough adjustment, but you will be in all our hearts and minds forever.

Dear Paul and the entire Ensign and Fredricks families:
I found out about Julie's passing this past Saturday, November 16, 2007. I am taking this very hard. Paul, I hope you remember me, I was the one with the twins that used to live in the Wethersfield housing project.
Julie was a good friend to me and she was a very strong woman, a great mom, and obviously a great wife to you. My sincere and deepest condolences to all of you.
God is cradling her in his arms and she is oh so safe now and she is rid of the pain. May God bless her.
Sincerely,
Missie Carlson

All my traveling here and there, in the military and in college, since your marriage to Paul had me away a lot; but when I was home, we had so much fun together. I'll never forget you. I just talked to you and Trisha a week ago and you seemed fine and I was anticipating you'd be going home soon so I was shocked and so unhappy by the news of your passing. Let me know how things are up there and if they have Bud's or imported beer. I remember all the happy and not-so-happy times we shared from your wedding, to holidays and birthdays, the births of your children along with their receiving of the sacrements, New year's parties on Jordan Lane, Kevin's football games, your support for me before leaving for France and then again Desert Storm, to the other family deaths we experienced. I am glad you and Paul went out of your way to stay in touch with me in my numerous absences over the phone, sometimes online, and through cards and notes. I always was wondering if the Red Sox would win it all before my father died and although he didn't get to see it, you did get to experience that. Paul, the kids, and everyone miss you so much and are trying to come to grips with this. I am sure everyone will be fine and make you proud. I love ya Julie, you will be sorely missed and in our hearts and minds forever.

Wow...this is a shocker and I'm writing w/ deepest sorrows to the Fredricks family. I am so sorry to hear about Julie and my prayers are with her at this time. I have to say that when I think of Julie I will never forget the great times I had with her when she babysat for me in Old Weathersfield. I have to say, I got away with more stuff w/ her than I did with Monica so I always wanted Julie to babysit(sorry Monica). She was a lot of fun back then and I wish her only the best at this time. I know she's in good hands with her dad right now and that makes things easier to accept at this time. My thoughts are with you all! Kathleen
