Julia Cruz, 86, of Shillington, PA entered eternal rest on Friday, November 17, 2023, at Mifflin Center. Born in Humacao, Humacao, Puerto Rico on April 12, 1937, she was a daughter to the late Francisco Cruz and Braulia Cepeda.
For 35 years, Julia worked as an office clerk with Verizon, until her retirement.
Julia enjoyed trips to the casinos, going on cruises and in her younger years she loved to dance (she even won a dance competition and was crowned the "Mambo Queen"). Julia will be fondly remembered for her happy and sometimes feisty disposition, for her generosity and for her love of the color purple. She will be missed by all blessed enough to have known her.
Julia's spirit will be carried on by her daughter Carol Bruss; her partner David Bruss; her son Randolph Gordon; 3 sisters Iris,Catherine, and Nayda; and 2 brothers David and Carlos. She also leaves behind 4 grandchildren and many great grandchildren to cherish her memory.
In addition to her parents, Julia was greeted in heaven by her daughter Leslie George and her grandson Edwin Montalvo Jr.
