Iuliana moved to America in 1990, with her son and his father. She was the owner and operator and professional driver trainer for over 50 years. Iuliana was truly passionate about her business. After she retired, she often reminisced on her successful career and missed driving the trucks.

She was an endearing mother, grandmother, and friend. Iuliana carried herself with wisdom and elegance. It was always appreciated when she shared her valuable life experiences.
Iuliana was also a woman of great faith, and high moral standing. She was a member of St. John Chrysostom Romanian Orthodox Church, since she moved to Tennessee, in 2006.
