Eternal Rest Grant Unto Her, O Lord
Please keep in your prayers the repose of the soul of Julie Fedak Walker, and for the the consolation of her family.
Julie and her family lived around the corner from my family when we were kids. Julie and her sister, Kathleen, were about the same age as my oldest two sisters, Ann and Jen, so the four of them played together a lot (Julie’s brother, Bobby, was a bit too young for me to play with). The Fedaks and the Garretts did a lot of things together, with the parents being friends as well. They became part of our “family. Even after the Fedaks moved, we kept in touch with them, visiting them, getting together for the big events, like graduations.
Julie had some challenges when she was a teenager, and early 20s, but she was always a very happy and friendly person. She loved her family very much, Kathleen was her best friend as well as sister. Julie has two children; both minors. Apparently she suffered a massive heart attack on Tuesday night, and died. She was only 41. Needless to say, it was a tremendous shock to everyone.
Pray that all who loved her will draw close to the Lord in this time of grief, relying on His strength, and trusting in His mercy.
[The reason for the purple butterfly above, is because Julie loved the color purple, and she collected butterflies. She thought that butterflies reflected her carefree personality.]
