Julie, also known as “Julie Bug” lived a beautiful life full of compassion and love for God, animals, people, her family, and her community. She was always willing to lend a helping hand and did so in many aspects of her life. As an occupation she enjoyed her time doing many things such as walking dogs, laundry attendant, volunteering for events such as P.A.W.S., and anything that was asked of her. She will always be remembered as a cheerful, compassionate, kind hearted person with a playful spirit that put a smile on everyone’s face….Julie just wanted to make the world a better place. Among many things, Julie loved Michael Jackson, Kenny Rogers, her relationship with God, animals, babies, dolls, and helping others. One thing she was particularly proud of was her work at P.A.W.S. For Life (a life shelter for animals). She was also very creatively expressive through her writings and arts and crafts.
A Memorial Mass will be held Saturday, November 22, 2014, 10am at Calvary Worship Center, Colorado Springs, CO.
Julie Bug will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
