Julia was my Godmother. I was named after her. My Grandmother, Oma Scribner met Julia in 1950 in the hospital as they were both giving birth to twins. They stayed best friends ever since until my Grandma passed away in Nov. 2011. The last time I seen Julia was a few years ago when She and her son, Don came out to California for a visit and rode the amtrak all the way from Illinois. Julia was a wonderful Godmother to me and dear friend to my Grandma. She never missed a birthday or holiday. She had the kindest of souls and she will be missed by many! RIP Aunt Julia! xo

I will always remember passing Julia's house on the way to visiting my relatives out near Lake Decatur. I loved it when we drove by the picture window there in front of Staley's. Julia had such fun and wonderful displays in her window!Also, I remember Julia from Moser family reunions–she knew everyone and how they were related! It amazed me!I still have a picture of her when I was invited to join the ladies in one of their Quarterly lunches at the Tea Room. I really enjoyed hearing the gals catch up on family and reminisce of days of old.I last saw Julia in February. She braved the weather to pay her respects to our family when my brother passed away. And there she was her arm in a sling!Julia did not let anything slow her down…she still made her cakes and cookies for others.To those she left behind, she will be missed.Blessings and prayers,Beth Quintenz….daughter of Norma and Lucian

Sending our sincere sympathy from Montana. Julie was such a dear friend to my Mother and Dad. They enjoyed many happy times together at the K of C or over dinners out. She brought such a sparkle to Mom's eye when they were going to be together. Please know we share in your loss and she is in God's home now.
