Julia Marie Jasper, 64, of Cary, IL passed away peacefully on September 13, 2022. She was born July 31, 1958, in Estherville, Iowa to the late Leonard and Neomi Linn. She graduated from the University of Iowa in 1980 with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree. On October 24, 1981, Julia married Patrick Jasper. They celebrated over forty beautiful years learning to love one another in marriage. They were blessed with two children: Jessica and Anthony. They were blessed again with two grandchildren: Madeleine and Theodore. Julia loved influencing and guiding children of all ages. Beginning in her early teens with her nieces and nephews and continuing through to her grandchildren. Her greatest regret is not finishing what she started with Maddie and Teddy. She had a love and a knack for interior design and landscaping, which was reflected in every home she touched, turning it from a house into a home. Julia also became a mentor to many friends and family throughout the years. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

All of whom she, in one way or another, considered her own.

Or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital https://www.stjude.org. The physical and mental pain and suffering from any cancer is terrible for adults, for children it is horrendous.
