Dear Millie, Bill & Chris,
Our friendship has lasted 50+ years. When we first met Julian, we saw a gentleman who was very proud of his community, and during all the years since, he has demonstrated being a great community leader contributing so much of his time and talents. He has been a professional throughout, enhancing the quality of life on Treasure Island and the Pinellas County Beaches.
Julian was a true gentleman, and we have great respect for him as do untold others. We called him
"Mr. Treasure Island" and loved him dearly.

Julian was my father in law. Always a gentleman, he was also an amazing man. He was elected 5 times for the position of mayor of Treasure Island and 8 years for a total of 16 years as a commissioner. He was also a hero. He was recognized for his water rescue by receiving a Carnegie medal for bravery. He was a volunteer firefighter, a master at growing roses, fishing , and could grill up a fabulous london broil. His stories of old time florida were fascinating. He was a great storyteller. He now joins my husband, Charlie in this next chapter. He leaves behind his grieving wife of 73 years, a daughter, and a son. 2 grandaughters and 3 great grandchildren. Sympathy to everyone who knew this wonderful man and called him family and friend.. He will be missed.
