Julie Petty Obituary

Published by Legacy on Nov. 21, 2025.
Julieanna Petty (McVicker), born May 19, 1962, tragically left this world on November 8, 2025, after being struck by a vehicle. The driver fled the scene, ending her life far too soon. Julie was born in Painesville, Ohio, and spent most of her life in the area before relocating to Summerfield, Florida.

Julie lived a private and independent life. She was resilient, stubborn, and spent many years living as a nomad. She loved her cats deeply and was known locally as the lady on the corner of Sunset Harbor, often seen waiting with a smile and a wave for anyone passing by.

She is survived by her five children: Samantha (Joel) Shreve, Justica (Ray) Stephens, Scott Petty, Crystal New, and Jamie (William) Kuntz; twelve grandchildren; one great-grandchild; her sister Bonnie McVicker; and her brother Lester McVicker.

Julie is preceded in death by several family members who passed before her.
