Juli-
Mother, companion, daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, cousin & friend. Thank you for enriching our lives. So many people love you and will miss you terribly. I believe we were all so lucky to have known you. Of all of your wonderful qualities, I loved your smile; your laugh and your sense of humor the most. Although we lived 1,700 miles away, we've always had an undeniable connection that we both found very amusing. I'll always treasure that connection and will never forget it. I'm grateful you were a part of our lives for 48 years.
Until we meet again,
Your cousin,
Randy

My beautiful niece, Juli ~ It is so shocking that you are not here with us; we didn't have near enough time with you. It was a joy to watch you grow from the little blonde-haired child into the lovely, fun, unique woman who we all loved so much. My heart bleeds for your son Tyler, for your devoted mom Joan, for loving dad Jim, for your beloved Jim Pirelli ~ for ALL whose lives you touched & who loved you. No more pain, Dear One ~

Dear Juli's Family~
I learned to know Juli through the massage therapy program at NUHS. She was one of the first people I met when I came to the school. As I grew to know her, I will never forget her kindness and great sense of humor. This news saddens the NUHS community. She will be greatly missed. My sincerest sympathies to you all.

My heart broke when I heard about Juli. She was my very first friend from the day she was born. We didn't talk often but when we did there was always the deepest connection you only have with the greatest friends. I will always remember the days playing and running through the fields at the Glen Ellyn house, playing barber shop in Grandpa's basement and the family gatherings. There was always so much love and laughter. I will hold those memories in my heart forever.

I scrapbooked with Juli and was the lucky girl that got to share a room with her. She brought so many good times to our group, so many funny stories. She always had me laughing. I will treasure the happy memories of Juli and continue to remember her with happiness in my heart. I hope her family and friends can find comfort in knowing that she was such a uniquely wonderful person and she will be dearly missed.
