To Delphia, Bruce, Craig and Lance,
I was very saddened to hear of Julies passing. She was a truly wonderful lady with a kind heart, gentle wisdom, and a warm presence that touched so many lives especially mine, growing up.
Julie grew up with my mum, Dorothy, and their friendship spanned years., beginning up at Kaniere as children. I have fond memories of Julie as I grew up, as a graceful and caring lady who always seemed to know the right thing to say. Whether we were playing up or simply needed a little guidance, she had a special way of gently steering us in the right direction.
She will be remembered with great affection and respect, and my thoughts are with you all at this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy, Brett Abbott.
