Julie McGrath Obituary
January 20, 1967 - February 14, 2023
It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved Julie. She passed away surrounded by family and friends. On February 14th, 2023 she lost her battle with pancreatic cancer. Julie 's main purpose in her life was being "The Mom ". She was dedicated to any endeavor she put her mind to, steadfast and loving. Julie loved to travel, spend time with her family and loved ones, and always eager to try new things. She is survived by her husband, Wes McGrath (Lompoc). Her four children, Zachary Jackson (Santa Barbara), Cassandra Jackson (Lompoc), Jeremiah McGrath (Lompoc), and Jonathan McGrath (Lompoc). Two grandchildren, Rylee Galvez (Lompoc) and Easton Villalovos (Lompoc). She also leaves behind her siblings, Robin Gorley (Casmalia), Christina Cantu (Santa Maria), Tricia Chapple (Santa Maria) and brother Norman Watt (Casmalia). Her life long friends, Marne Bussard, Cindi Garvin and Tracie Erickson, who were just like sisters to Julie. Her countless nieces, nephews, cousins, coworkers and friends were so cherished by Julie. She was immensely blessed and had an appetite for life that surpassed most. She will always be remembered and eternally loved by all who knew her.
Our family greatly appreciates your love, support, and thoughts during this time.
