Julie was my first cousin and I would come visit as a child usually when my family were house hunting to move. I loved coming to the farm to see my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. Julie and Don came to visit us in Oklahoma. She will be missed. Thoughts and prayers go out to her family. 🙏🙏😇😇

At the last class reunion Julia and Don attended she and I sat on the dock at Robinsons pond and talked. I was impressed with her kindness,wit,and warmth. What a remarkable person.

Don, Joe, Sally and James we send our love and sympathy to you and the whole family. Julia was the best "second" cousin I could ask for, and we had some amazing adventures growing up. I especially remember our trip to Mexico, where we had mucho fun and only un poquito of mischief!! I know Julia will be missed, and I pray for God's comfort and peace for you all. Juli Smith

Julia was my friend and classmate all through school. I had the privilege of standing up for her wedding to Don. I lost touch a few times as I've moved often, but we continued to share Chrustmas cards every year. She was such a genuine sweet kind person and I can't believe she's gone...my prayers are with you Don as I know how hard it is to lose the love of your life...

So very sad & heartbroken for all of Julia’s family & special friends left behind. There are just no words for her leaving so suddenly & unexpectedly. I’m sure the angels were singing, the confetti was flying and all of those gone before forming a gauntlet to welcome her home. RIP, Julia, & raise a little Cain up there with Chris!

Dear Don, Haven’t seen you for a long time. As I read the obituary I realize Julia may have interacted with my sons who attended Galion City Schools from K thru 12, though I didn’t know Julia was an educator in Galion! You are in my thoughts at this painful time as I know some of what you’re going through losing a spouse.

With sadness, I learned of Julia's passing. I had the privilege of working with her while she was the media center specialist at Galion Middle School in the 1980s. She believed strongly that the media center served an important role in furthering a child's education. She dedicated herself to that task. But equally important, she created lasting relationships with staff members. Her smile was contagious. May peace be with her family.

Coach T., I'm so sorry we'll be out of town and unable to attend services. Our sincere sympathy to you & your family for your loss. You and Julia are nearly folk heroes around here and have a special place in the hearts of so many JC folks and beyond. Julia was just too special, well beyond one of the most infectious smiles to ever walk this earth. Our sympathy and prayers are with you all. Tony (Jerk nose) & Nancy Meyer & Family

Julia was such a beautiful woman and it hurts me that she was taken so soon... I know that she is at peace with her loved ones looking down on all of us. So saddened that I couldn't make the funeral. Forever thinking about Uncle Don and keeping him in my prayers. Love Aunt Julie and Uncle Don forever xoxo
