I never got to meet you, but I'm sure you were (and still are) awesome.

To Julie's family - I had lost touch with your Mom, but thought of her often when times in my own life caused me to reach for fond memories of people who inspired me or just made me laugh. I was so stunned to read about your Mom's death. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. When searching for meaning I came to realize after my own Mom's death last year that ... He Only Takes the Best!

Andrea, Leslie, and Lauren, my heart is also with you. I just came across your mom's obituary. I don't remember who introduced your mom to me but it was in the late 80's - early 90's, I grew up in South Milwaukee. I modeled her BEAUTIFUL fabric art. I still have some of the slides. I appreciated so much the respect and support she gave me as a teenager. God bless you, Kelly (Stone) Kuster

Andrea, Leslie and Lauren,

My sincere condolences go to all of you at this very difficult time. I have not seen any of you since I left Grace Lutheran School. Your mom was part of our carpool and I remember her as a very loving and creative person. My prayers and thoughts are with you now and always. May you have comfort in knowing she is in a better place and peacefully watching over all of you.

Dear Leslie,

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family. I know how hard it was losing your dad when you were our neighbor on Stowell. I am praying that you find some serenity during this difficult time. My deepest sympathy.

Dear Andrea, Leslie & Lauren
We first met your mom when she brought Andrea to St. John's to join Brownies and continued contact throughout Little League and high school. We remember her as a friendly, bright enthusiastic person who put you girls above all else. She was fun to be with and willing to help in any way she could. She was one of the most creative people we ever knew. The world has lost a beautiful person! Our hearts and prayers go out to you at this time.

Leslie,
I'm absolutely stunned...I hope that you can at least take a little comfort knowing that your mom was doing something she loved.

My thoughts are with you and your sisters.

Dear family and friends of Julie Siletti, especially her three daughters: I have not stopped thinking of your mother since Saturday. I did not know her, but I was standing at the shore at Elkhart Lake and saw her as she passed away. I just want you to know that your mother was being helped by many good people who did their very best to try to save her. I do not know if that is of any consolation, but I hope it is. Everyone present was very respectful and quiet and I do not believe your mom suffered. I pray for you all of you and am just so sorry for your loss. I read the story about her. She seemed like such a neat woman and a terrific mother. May God bless you all.

I was fortunate to have worked with Julie several years. We had a lot of long talks together and shared our childrens experiences. She will be missed. Jean Sheboygan Falls, WI.

As Julie's cousin, I remember her when we were young, at family gatherings. She was always quiet, but had such a sweet spirit. We haven't stayed in touch throughout these last 20 years but I'm sure she was very busy doing what all us moms do, looking after our families, loving and caring for them. I know she was a bright light for her parents, her brother, her late husband, and for her three daughters. I just know that she will be with all of you always. When someone takes hold of your heart they become a part of it. My heart is with all of you. I am so very sorry.

I was very fortunate to be able to have Julie as a neighbor and friend. We worked togethor against the toxic waste dump and she was a person who truely believed in helping other people. We had great times walking our dogs along the beach. I will truly miss her. I wish her girls all our prayers and best wishes.

I was fortunate to be able to spend time with Julie while she spent the summer down here in Georgia visiting Andrea and her grandaughters. Sometimes we laughed until we cried and sometimes we just sat on the rocks at the Broad river and she told me stories of her life, sharing so much wisdom... that summer we became friends and there is a very large space in my heart where she will always remain... I will miss Julie just as everyone who ever had the pleasure to spend time with her... I will never forget her strength and determination and I will carry that with me always.

She was my mom's best friend, and one of the moms I "collected" growing up. I remember her laughter, her wonderful sarcasm, and the beautiful things she created--both in fabric and in relationships with the people around her. Mrs. Silletti (never could call her Julie!) will be missed, but I know she's somewhere watching over her family, and so proud of her daughters. Andrea, Leslie, and Lauren, my heart is with you.

Julie and I started sailing lessons together last year. I remember being equally impressed and in awe of her. She had a delightful sense of humor and was very endearing. She will be greatly missed, even by me who only sailed with her a few times. My sincere condolences to you. You were so blessed to be her kids, just as she was blessed with you.

Julie's smile and positive attitude lit up a room! I knew Julie primarily through our Bodypump class at the SS YMCA where she will be greatly missed. I offer my sincere condolences to you and hope that your loving memories will help sustain you through this difficult time.

We love you and we're all so proud of you mom! You are an inspiration to us and will continue to be throughout our lives. We will carry you with us always, just as you did us. Thank you for being a wonderful mother and friend. I don't know how we'll do it, but I know you'll be sending us your strength and love. While we'll miss you always, we know you're with us. Any heart we see, we'll know you'll be in our hearts, giving us your love.

She tried, to surround so many with love and beauty.
She succeeded.
