      Julie and I spent some very special days together. I was honored that she asked me to be her sponsor to becotme an Episcopalian. Those are very tender memories I cherish.

    (I shared this on FB and came here to also share with those who truly knew her)

    RIP Julie Ann Geldreich. 💔

    When people have said “There are not enough words” I never fully understood the depth of that statement. Until now, unfortunately. I feel a little weird sharing this but I have to because I wish I could tell every individual person on the planet what you mean to me.

    You loved me unconditionally.

    You taught me so much about life (whether I wanted to hear it or not) that I, to this day, share with everyone I can with the hope of helping them in the same way that you helped me for over a decade. A decade of my life that has been so hard in so many ways but would have been unbearable without you. It feels like it will be unbearable now but I will not let it be because I know everything you want for me. I love you too much to give up. You loved me too much to ever let me think of giving up.

    I am grateful that I told you during one of our last conversations how much I appreciate all that you have done for me. Everything else was extra compared to the 10+ years of having you in my life with all of your love, guidance and maternal comfort. It was more than I could have ever asked for. Your friendship was the solid foundation I walked on when the ground beneath my feet felt like it was crumbling.

    I am so glad that that friendship gave us a mother/daughter bond I only HOPE I give to my children. You are incomparable in my eyes and I could never, in any lifetime, thank you enough for gifting me that.

    I love you and I miss you so much, Julie. It hurts like nothing I have ever experienced but I am SO SO SO happy that I was your person because you will eternally be mine.J

    Julie you were such a beautiful person to know and to work with. I don’t know what happened, but I know now you are whole again and no pain. My mama and Capt Swift are up there and so many others from TDOS, I hope you all get together and enjoy each others friendship again. Hug mama and the big guy for me. Love you, friend.

      Thank you so much for your kind words, Suzanne! I know it meant so much to Mom that you were her friend—and her sponsor as she deepened her Faith in the church. Her friends, family and faith meant everything to her.
