She was a graduate of Windsor Locks High School, and the Connecticut Institute of Hairdressing. She owned and operated a beauty studio for many years in town where she made many friends. During her later years in life, Julia enjoyed tending to her yard and visiting with her family on holidays and special occasions.

Besides her husband, Julia was predeceased by two brothers, Staff Sgt. William Kuczynski and Mathew Kuczynski; and two sisters, Stella Barberi and Helen Kuczynski; and two beloved nieces. She also leaves many other nieces and nephews. Julia, who loved her family, will be remembered for her thoughtful and generous spirit. She will be dearly missed by all.
