I don''t think it''s an overstatement to say that anyone who knows Julie is better for it. She lifts up everyone. For much of her life she did this just by being herself. Now she had taken some of the inspiration she finds around her, in nature and in everyday activities and submitted that to paper. As a result, we will all be enriched again by her presence.
