90 Years young passed away quietly at her home with her daughters by her side.
She was a loving mother to her daughters Donna Jean DuRain Allen (Terry Allen) and Brenda Lynn DuRain Davidson (Dan Davidson), a devoted Grandmother to Nicole Allen Moore, JJ Allen, Ryan Allen, Christian Davidson, Daniel Davidson and Steven Davidson and she was blessed with 11 Great grandchildren.
She is preceded in death by her husband James Lee DuRain and her 7 siblings.
Julia was born in Hammonton, New Jersey to Dominic and Rose Ordille. She married James DuRain in 1954 in Panama City and they traveled to Kentucky, Germany and New Jersey before moving to Melbourne Florida in 1970.
Julia worked as a waitress and most notably at the Sea Room and the Yacht Club before she retired. She then went to work part-time at Walmart until she fully retired at the age of 81.
She became a resident of Grand Villa of Melbourne in 2019 where she made many friends and became the unofficial welcoming committee.
Her family will remember her love of cooking, her smile and her love of singing.
Her favorite lullaby to sing to her grandchildren and great grandchildren;
“You are my sunshine, my only sunshine you make me happy when skies are grey, you’ll never know dear how much I love you, please don’t take my sunshine away.”
She will be the sunshine in our hearts forever.
Due to the recent pandemic there will be a private Celebration of Life on Thursday at the family residence.
We ask in lieu of flowers that donations be made to Healthfirst Hospice.
