  4. So sorry for your loss. I really enjoyed worshiping with Julia at Holiday Chapel. She was a blessing for everyone as she led the singing. Prayers for Donald and family. She was such a friend to me when I lost Tommy 2 years ago as she helped put together the memorial service for him at the chapel.

  9. Don, I am so sorry for your loss. I loved Julia. She was my friend and I thought of her a second Mom. You both have had such an impact in my life. I will so miss having lunch with Julia and hearing about all of your trips. She took care of me when I was sick, and when my kids and I needed help. I will never forget her. And I know how much she loved you. She was so generous with her love, time and service to this world. She will be missed by so many.

  11. My heart goes out to the Hayes family. Julia was such an inspiration. Even though I only knew her for a short time (SKH at Buford FUMC), she left such an impression on giving and leadership. Prayers to Don and the family.

  12. Don: We are shocked and so sorry to hear of Julia’s untimely passing. She was such a talented. caring person. She made us feel so welcome at Holiday Chapel last summer. We will miss her.
