Judy and I were saddened to read of Julie's death this morning. We saw her at the noon Mass on Dec. 8th, but didn't get to talk to her.We extend sincere sympathy to the entire family, and keep both her and you in our prayers at this most difficult of times.
Julia was a longtime friend, and I remember fondly many happy times at Tybee and St. Michael's Parish over many years.She had a deep and abiding faith in her catholicity, and was so proud of her Irish Heritage, and know you are comforted in the Faith she is now at Peace with our Blessed Lord, and Mary Immaculate forever. May she rest in Peace. With love, Jack
