To Mark Yurkiv and the family of Julie. I am so very sorry for your loss. She sounds like an exceptional lady and was taken way to young. My deepest sympathy and prayers to you all. Sincerely, Debbie Monfeli, (Pamela Yurkivs sister)

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.

Condolence from Tracy (Kieronski) Stocker on August 8th, 2016 8:24 pm

I am so sorry to learn of Julie’s passing. She and I were classmates at RBHS. She was always smiling and laughing. Always such a sweet girl.

Condolence from Julie DeLong on August 8th, 2016 10:47 pm

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..

Condolence from Majde Muhdi on August 9th, 2016 9:44 am

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.

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.

Condolence from Kripa Sriram on August 10th, 2016 3:24 am

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.

Condolence from Kathy Oprenchak (Oswald) on August 10th, 2016 8:14 am

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.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

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.

Dear Jen and your Family and Mark. I was blessed that I got to know Julie because of you. Her smile and kindness was contagious. I am so very sorry for her loss, but the memories are forever.

Our heartfelt condolences upon the passing of Julie. Forever in our hearts.

Condolence from Nadia on August 22nd, 2018 7:07 am

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.
