To Julia's nieces and nephews,



I knew Julia all of my life. I lived on Hutchinson Street, across from Julia and Norman's house until 1951. They were like an aunt and uncle to me. My dad, Martin Reimer, and Norman were childhood friends and continued as friends the rest of their lives.

Julia was very special to me and when my late mother was in a nursing home for several years Julia continued to write to her frequently.

I shall miss Julia as a warm, caring, loving person who never forgot my birthday. I shall miss her birthday cards and her St. Patrick DAy's cards and Christmas cards.

You were blessed to have such a loving Aunt.
