I am in shock, I have only just found out that Julie has passed away , I first met Julie and Ralph at the Deniliquin market with their beautiful plants and we often went to Kerang just to buy plants and have a chat about their trips they both did , you will be sadly missed, now reunited with dear Ralph, R.I.P beautiful lady , from Kerry and Peter ❤️
Julie was such a lovely lady and I loved visiting her at the nursery. I bought my first plant from her at the Murrabit Market when I arrived in Kerang many, many years ago and I’m still looking at it in my lounge room. Julie was such a generous person, always thinking of others and doing so much community work, and her plants have brought such joy to many people. She will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy.
