Julie was preceded in death by her father.
An adventurer, Julie loved jumping from planes (skydiving), long motorcycle rides (anywhere), quilting, and animals (especially her fur babies).
It was however, her family whom she loved the most- especially her husband, Steven Bite; son, Peter DeKeles; granddaughter, Alyssa Newman; mother, Sachiko Koga Stout; and so many friends she felt were family.
