Julie was a very special person who touched the lives of everyone she met. I was honored to call Julie a friend 68 years! RHIP
Julie was a longtime friend who shall be truly missed. I so looked forward to my luncheons with her on my visits to Minnesota.
My sympathies to the family. Julie was a wonderful nurse. I have many great memories of our working together in OB. Prayers and blessings go out to you. She will be missed.
So sorry to hear of Julie’s passing. She was my wonderful labor and delivery nurse in Worthington 36 years ago♥️ She was a fabulous nurse and I will always remember her🌹. RIP dear Julie❤️ Prayers for her dear family 🙏🏻
I was good friends with Mary Ann as we were growing up so Julie was around much of that time. Most of my memories of Julie are of the “little sister” type–good memories indeed. She grew into a delightful woman and will be missed. Our condolences to the family. May God bless you with his healing comfort and peace.
