Julie was a bight light in a dark world. Her laughter, her genuine selflessness, and her love made her one of thee most amazing people I have ever met. I loved her like a sister, and she will be greatly missed. It didn’t matter how much time passed, when we’d get together we’d always pick right up where we left off. When ever I would talk about something on facebook, she would always be there to lift me up. Julie I will miss you so much…but I know when my fateful day comes, you will be right up front in Heaven waiting to greet me. I love you!!! I wish I could tell you that one more time!!!
