Julie Ann Lambert, 64, of Des Moines, Iowa, passed away peacefully on September 14, 2025.

She was born on January 16, 1961, in Fort Dodge to William and Hazel. Julie dedicated many years of her life to caring for others through her work at Methodist Hospital, where her compassion and kindness touched countless lives.

Outside of her career, Julie's greatest joy was her family. She especially loved spending time with her grandchildren, creating memories they will carry with them forever. Julie also had a special love for Christmas, and she took great joy in decorating the perfect tree each year, making the holiday season magical for her loved ones.

Julie is survived by her children, Brian Lambert, Ryan Lambert, and Stacey Rocha; her daughter-in-law, Carrie Lambert; her sisters, Susan Schnathorst and Pam Konchalski; her brother, Jerry Mullahey; her cherished grandsons - Marshall, Sam, Anthony, Alan, Brandon, Christopher, Justin, Mateo, and Santiago and her great-granddaughter, Hazel.

She was preceded in death by her father, William Lambert; her stepfather, Gerald Mullahey; her mother, Hazel Mullahey; her sister, Nancy Parish and her brothers, Wayne Hyde, Bill Lambert and Pat Mullahey.

Julie will be remembered for her warm heart, her selflessness, and the love she gave so freely to those around her. Her legacy of love will live on through her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchild.
