The neighbors of the 5000 block of Astor Place SE Washington, DC were very sadden to hear of the passing of. Ms. Julia/ Ms. Berry as she was affectionately known.
Ms. Julia/Berry was a sharing and caring person to all the neighbors residing in the apartment buildings of 5020, 5024 and 5026 as well as the houses across the street. As the caretaker of those buildings, she made sure that every residents was treated respectfully and decent. She make sure everyone got what was needed. She did things more than expected and love being an advocate for the residents.
As a neighbor, I was surprise to learn we were from the Petersburg, Virginia area and I knew her sister Eunice very well. From that conversation we became very close neighbors and friend.
She has been truly miss from the DC area and she definitely will be missed from earthly presence. Now she has become an ANGEL of GOD to continue to watch over her family and friends.
SLEEP in HEAVENLY PEACE Julia Berry

To Julia Family, I think God for her the help to save my life and stay sober for 27 years, I met her just under 30 days clean new in recovery. I was in a program, and she shared, and for the first time, I heard something that made be believed that this program could work for me. My family is in appreciation for her that help me to find faith and hope and that she gave me. From that day until this one I stand on what she gave me from her spirit and her soul. I will miss her but she is free now and no more pain, no more suffering and walk with her creator now in Heaven, I will see her again one day and stand with all she taught me.
