My most fond memories of Julie come from our family vacations at Grandpa’s cabin, in the deep green forests of Wisconsin, by the sparkling blue waters of Spider Lake. It wasn’t always perfect there. We had rain and cold weather and of course the dreaded mosquitoes and leaches. But, it was always a place where we could love and be loved, be happy and safe. I believe God intends for us to be happy, to be without sorrow, pain or depression, and for a week or two in the summer at grandpa’s cabin, in the deep green forests of Wisconsin, on the sparkling blue waters of Spider Lake we were very close to heaven. We heard the joy of our children playing, and watched grandpa constantly working and repairing that old cabin. Grandpa gave us the feeling that with enough hard work and perseverance almost anything could be fixed. I think Carol and I have a lot of him in us. Like dad, given enough duct tape, epoxy, dental floss, and determination, we believe we can fix nearly everything from computers to leaking toilets. However, the truth is, some designs and systems are just too complicated for any man to fix and it is not our fault when we can’t. We human beings are the most complicated creation of all. Just one mutated cell, one too many or too few chromosomes, or just a slight chemical imbalance can lead to enormous pain and suffering. God’s design may be perfect, but we are born into an imperfect world and sometimes He needs to do a recall to fix what we cannot. Someday He will do that for us all. He will take away our pain and sorrow, our suffering and depression, heal our bodies and minds, and we will be reunited at the little cabin, in the deep green forest of Wisconsin, by the sparkling blue waters of Spider Lake. But this time, without the leaches or mosquitoes. Julie, please keep grandma and grandpa company until we get there. Love you Julie Mean Uncle John

So sorry to hear about this, I remember little Julie from when I was in high school and dated her sister. How she used to pick up the phone and listen in on our phone conversations, snooping around whenever she could. I will never forget bringing her with to the haunted house and she held my hand all the way through it. She could be a stinker but was also fun. It has been a long time since I saw her, I did speak to her on the phone one night when she called the PD for overnight parking permission years ago. When she heard my name she remembered who I was right away and we chatted for a minute. I will never forget you and I know you will be missed by many. Rest in peace Julie, watch over your family until you all meet again.

Oh my little baby cousin. I wish you knew how much I adored you. I loved to play with your beautiful curly hair when we were little. I prayed for a daughter with your beautiful curls and olive skin and looking at my Kaylee reminds me that you will not be forgotten. Your memories live on through me. The next time I pick a flower on my walks, I will think of you. The next time my kids ask to help a lost puppy, I will stop and not think what a pain it is for me. I wish I could find my favorite pic of us. Walking with flowers in our hair and hands, walking down a dusty Wisconsin road. ❤️ I wish our path crossed more as adults. I miss your sweet face and of course your sense of humor. You will be missed by so many but never forgotten. Love you forever little cousin.

I chose your name
I chose your name,
You were a little girl’s dream come true; a little sister, a doll,
I could play and play with you!
I can remember the day mom and dad brought you home,
I can remember holding your hands to teach you to walk,
I can remember teaching you to say your name,
I can remember your favorite toy was a stuffed pound puppy,
I can remember that The Little Mermaid was your favorite movie,
I can remember your favorite color was purple,
I can remember the cartoons that you watched over and over again,
I can remember the family trips and endless summers spent splashing in the water.
More memories please come as I sit and I think. Please don’t let me forget, for they could fade in a blink.
I haven’t thought back to these memories in a while. Oh how I wish I could remember it all. Oh how I wish I could remember them with a smile!
Everything good and nothing bad. But then what would make the good times, good? If there were no bad?
And then we grew up, and now here we are. You will live on in our memories and watch from afar.
What can I do and what can I say?What could have been done or what could have been changed? Oh how I wish I could go back to talk with you that day.
Will there be days that a sound, feeling or smell will remind me of times from the past that we share?
Will there be a breeze that blows gently in my ear and whispers “I’m here, there is no more pain that I have to bare”
Now your pain is my pain and as the roles have reversed, for you are the one who is teaching me first;
Teaching me of the deepest grief and to be strong,
Teaching me that sometimes enough is enough,
Teaching me that bravery comes in all forms,
Teaching me that it’s okay to let go and be done,
Teaching me to accept what is and what cannot be changed,
Teaching me to hold my family and friends close.
Please help us to appreciate and find love in each day. For we never know what tomorrow may bring and what will stay.
As the days will go by, the lessons will keep coming. Please give us the strength to trust you are at peace, and that happiness and joy will find us someday and be a release.
Until we meet again,
Love Jenny

Really going to miss you Couz.. I’m going to miss our laughter, our silliness and inside jokes. I’m going to miss your love for animals and how you tried to save All of Them! I’m going to miss sitting with you, eating together and encouraging each other on getting healthier. I will miss how much you wanted to feel better, having a career in helping others and wanting good things in your life. I wish we had conversations like this more often so you knew how important you were, how special you are.... You have no idea how much you were Loved, how much you were Prayed for, how much you were Cheered on. You know now Couz… You know now…. Your spirit and our cherished conversations will remain in my heart forever. In honor of you, I will continue to work hard on my physical health. This also includes mental health and loving myself more in the process. I know you would want this. In all that you Battled to Feel Better, you were Loved through all the storms. Your Family Loves You So Much! You were and still are a Blessing Julie. I know you are in Peace now, Watching Over All of Us. Love You So Much Couz…. <3
