To Frank, Nicole and family, Julie was a very special cousin to me. She was a very big inspiration to me during my teen years. We were very close. She was so nice and kind. I especially remember Julie and Frank taking Suzanne from Cumberland to Florida with them and then Suzanne married Charlie. Julie was like a second mother to Suzanne. Thanks for that. I/we will miss Julie very much but will cherish the fond memories of her and the times we spent together.
Cousin Tim and family

I will remember Julie and those childhood days in Cumberland with the Crippens, and all the good times we shared. Sincere condolences to Frank, Nicole and family and to Nancy, Eddie and Phil Rest In Peace, Julie.
Julie will be missed by so many. I will always think of her kindness, love, care and concern for our family. She was just a genuinely nice person and a great cousin to have.

To Julie’s Family,
I have fond memories of Julie.
Myself and family were blessed
to live in three (3) properties that she and her husband Frank
Managed in the 1980s and the
1990s. They were a Great Management Team!
Having moved back to
Florida from New York State in
the mid-1980s, I was grateful to be able to find the properties to rent that I did with Julie’s help.
I never forgot her and called her to inquire about properties with her a couple of times after leaving the area.
On 2/11/2021 I was led to do a
Google Search of her and had no idea that evening that she would pass away 3 days later.
I was sad to find out that she passed away on 2/14/2021.
My heart felt condolences to Frank and The Family.
I never forgot Julie through the past years and will always remember her, during the coming years. She was
always kind & professional.
With Fond Memories,
Deep Sadness and Much Love.
Condolences to my cousin, Fran and family. You had many productive years together and I know they were filled with joy, along with ups and downs. Far away, but still in our thoughts.
