Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Spunky, strong, and loving.. She taught her children well after my brother passed on. I find it coincidental that she left this world on what would have been my father’s…her father in law’s birthday. How she love daddy Jake as well. I love you Julia Bell. I know you are resting in the Savior’s arms. God bless each and every one of her family members.
