She married March 10, 1979 and shortly after raised 3 children. Most of her life she was a stay at home mom but throughout the years worked in retail and had opened up her own antique store for a couple of years. She enjoyed crafts in her earlier years and spent her life collecting antiques and loved to shop. Gone with the wind was her all time favorite movie, her fur-babies were everything to her, she loved Christmas time and chocolate covered cherries. The last few years she loved making candles and soap. Julie spent her life taking care of everyone around her and took in anyone who needed a place to go. She was a truly strong, loving genuine and beautiful soul who loved those around her so deeply and did everything she could to make sure her family was well taken care of and gave the warmest heartfelt hugs ever.
