Tom: I'm very sorry to learn of the passing of your lovely, generous wife. Your friend from Garden City, Artie.

Words cannot describe how much my heart hurts. She was truly one in 1 million. She was the kindest, most supportive, most selfless woman I have ever met. Her happiness came through watching others. I am blessed to have called her my best friend.

My three kids looked up to her as their other mom. And honestly she really was their other mom. She treated my babies like they were her own, the house was always full of laughter and fun and food and video games and new and fun things going on. Swimming at midnight dinner at 1 AM video games, Flashlight tag, it was truly the Funhouse. And who made that possible was Julie. My heart will have a whole forever
