Condolences


To the Bates family, I’m very sorry for your loss. It’s my hope that you can draw comfort from Jehovah God’s promises in the Bible. Revelation 21:3, 4 and Acts 24:15 show that there will soon be a time when there will be no more sickness, or death, and we can see the loved ones we’ve lost to death again. May these thoughts bring you strength and hope as you cherish the memories of your loved one.

I had the pleasure of meeting Julie through Scouting and participated in Wood Badge training with her in 2009. She was always so friendly and kind. I will miss her greatly. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

What an amazing service last night at the Hitzeman Funeral Home. So much love and caring was expressed by everyone who knew Julie. Mark, your love and broken heart was evident in your letter that Tony read. What a great person Julie was. My deepest sympathy goes out to you Son and Julie's family. Love Dad.

A beautiful lady in every way. It was an honor to work with her and know her. I wish I could express my condolences in person, but unfortunately it does not seem like I will be able..Lucky for me Julie always knew my kids came first and would understand.

My deepest sympathies to your family. HS friend from RB with Julie and Linda Scroggin (Bradbury). She may have been small in size, but big on life and had such a pure, beautiful spirit. It was infectious to everyone she new and met. God broke the mold when He made Julie! Take comfort knowing she is with Our Lord and with loved ones once again. God Bless.

I was shocked to hear of Julie's passing. Julie was my trainer when I got hired at Oakbrook bank 13 years ago. Her laugh and great caring spirit will be missed. May her family find the strength to bear this loss. You will be greatly missed Julie.

She will be much missed. Jules lit up the room when she entered and was always there no matter what you needed - a foot massage, someone to talk to. She cared about you.

I was shocked to hear the news, it's a big loss for the MB family. I had the pleasure to work with Julie for over a year, and I was always surprised by her energy and spunk, things I didn't overly poses. She was a great person and the world is down one for sure. May she rest in peace.

I was a high school classmate of Julie's at RB. As our last name's both started with B we often sat near each other while seated in alpha order. I remember Julie as kind and spunky with a positive outlook. Saddened to hear of her passing and send my condolences to her family..

Rest easy, my love. Thank you for shining your light on my life. I'm sure there is much laughter and singing (bursting) among the angels. I imagine you are enjoying a wonderful reunion with so many loved ones who have gone before. You will never be forgotten. Until we meet again.
