Julie D'Agostino

Dear Mario and Mary, eight years seems like only yesterday. Julie has been an inspiration to me over these past years. I remember her fighting spirit. I hope you and your family are well and realizing some comfort remembering Julie and all she accomplished in her short life. My prayers continue for you and your family.

To the D'Agostino Family,

Though we only met the D'Agostino family once at Marquette's graduation weekend, youl made a lasting impression on our entire family. Your love of life and exuberance was contagious. We kept up with Julie's struggle through Lauren & Elizbeth's friendship. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your amazing beautiful family.

God bless,
Dave, Sue and the McGurn family

Dear Mary and family-
I just heard of your loss. You were so supportive of me during my husbands transplant trials, and eventual loss. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. Till I see you again at Jackson, may lots of hugs come your way, they really do help.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. D'Agastino,

My name is Tom Baranyi, I first met you & Julie back in December 2009. From the beginning I could feel your love and compassion you both had for Julie. Your constant drive to seek help and to make Julie comfortable was unmeasurable. I hope you both continue to feel you did everything possible and hold that love in your hearts forever thinking of Julie.

To the D'Agostino family, I only met your Julie once after her stunning performance in "Hairspray". She was a shining star then and now she shines from above. Please know that there is an entire village of people that mourn and grieve with you now and for all the days to come. I can only imagine how beautiful she is while smiling, singing, and dancing her way thru the sun, the moon, and the stars.

Dear Mary and family,
The news of Julie's loss is heartbreaking. Please know that your Siena sisters are thinking of you, and that there is boundless love and prayer being offered for your family.

Mary, Mario and Family,

I didn't really know Julie but I certainly knew of her and today's Memorial Service gave me even more incite to her, her life and what all of you have been through. She certainly touched a lot of people and will continue to do so. There aren't any more words to say that you haven't heard already and I hope they will help you through this very hard time. God really did give her to the family that would help her go through this in the best possible way, with the best possible outlook. Believe me, there will come a time when all you remember are the wonderful times.

Love,

Kathy Donnelly

Mario, Mary, Michael, Elizabeth, Kevin, Carly, & Natalie,
We were so saddened to hear of Julie's passing. May all the memories of Julie bring you comfort, and I hope the love of your family and friends will ease the emptiness you feel. There is another Angel in Heaven - singing with the Angels Choir.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers. May eternal rest be granted unto Julie, and may perpetual light shine upon her.

Earlier this summer, My mother and I had the pleasant surprise of running into Julie and her older sister at mass in Oakbroom Terrace. We talked for a bit, and she was as perky as ever. I truly had no idea how badly her illness had progressed, or that she would be gone just a few short weeks later.

But that was Julie, she was always happy when others would be sad. She was positive when others would be pessimistic.

I am very lucky to have known her through our performances at IC, and thankful I could be the Corny to her Tracy. She has an enthusiasm few others in the department had, and certainly played no small role in the success of "Hairspray!'' .

My recently deceased granddad greatly admired her, and I hope they get to finally meet in the next life.

To the D'agostino family: I would like to first offer my condolences, but also to remind you to keep living your lives. As someone who has recently gone through much loss, I can appappreciate how truly difficult it is to move on. But (once you feel ready, of course) the greatest way to honor Julie, and all you may have lost, is to live your lives to their fullests.

Breathe easy Julie.

Mary and family,

There are no words to express how deeply sorry I am for your loss. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Mr. and Mrs. D'Agostino, Natalie, and Family,

Julie is an unforgettable member of our Vis class and Church. Although I hadn't seen her many times since we were kids, it was easy to hear about her or remember how hard she worked in school and be overwhelmingly inspired to live a better life. I'm so sorry for your loss, everyone who met her was a lucky person.

Sincerely,

Perhaps God is a poet
who writes with words
of flesh and bone and leaf and flower . . .

Every hour of every day,
words pour out of the Poet's heart,
and every word is beautiful and true and worth the telling.
And when each poem is perfect,
and there is no more which ought to be said,
the Poet gently takes the words back into His heart
where they are safe forever . . . and then begins again.

We followed Julie's courageous life. She is an inspiration and a warrior. Our hearts are with everyone who knew and loved her. Love, The Magee & Elfvin Families

Long and lasting brightness
