?Julie Rae Porter Steck passed peacefully in her sleep, Tuesday, September 5, 2017, after a hard battle with breast cancer. She was born March 18, 1958 to Madeline Harryman and Blaine Floyd Porter in Midvale, Utah.
The light of Julie's life was her children. She was a single mom that worked very hard to make sure her children did not go without. The greatest gift beyond her children was her grandsons. She cherished her special weekends with Tradyn, who always wanted to be with his "Grandma Judy". The special weekends had an added bonus when her grandson Drake could join.
Julie loved REIKI, making jewelry and working on her home. She loved everything about REIKI. To her it was a beautiful gift to give to bring comfort to others. Julie appreciated and was "giddy" by the smallest things in life. One of her favorites where her many wind chimes.
Julie made friends where ever she went. She had the ability to take people under her wing and guide them through obstacles that came their way.
Julie is survived by her daughter, Jessica Steck (Coty); son, Trent James Steck (Emily); three brothers, Scott Porter, Troy Porter, David Porter; one sister, Billie Jo Porter Melton; and two grandsons, Tradyn and Drake. She was preceded in death by her parents, Blaine Floyd Porter and Madeline Harryman; one brother, Steven Porter; and her grandmother Pebble Harryman.
A Celebration of Life will be held for family and close friends. Please IM Jessica via Julie R Steck Facebook Page.

Julie was a good friend, a devoted mother and a very proud grandmother. As a friend she was someone who could be counted on whether it meant just listening or giving sound advice. I am missing her unique outlook on the world, her infectious smile and warm heart. I admired her for her dedication to her family and friends, and for always looking for ways to use her awesome gift of healing to help others feel better. She was, and still is an epic friend and will never be forgotten.

Julie lived each day with a smile that she willingly shared with each person in her life. She will be missed, but always remembered.
