Born in Greenville, Alabama, Julia moved to Wellington, Florida in 1975 where she chose to raise her family, but remained fiercely close to her Alabama roots and was a true “Southern Belle."
Julia was a successful real estate broker in Wellington for over 40 years, and watched Wellington grow into one of the most desirable and prestigious places to raise families. She truly loved serving the community while making her mark in Wellington’s real estate market. Her success in real estate allowed her to follow her heart, which led to her next business adventure.
Julia always loved gardening, which was introduced to her by her mother, Ruthie Mae, at a very young age. Shelling peas on the porch while sipping sweet tea was a staple in her Alabama household. Her love for gardening and plants led her to open The Farmer’s Daughter Garden in the early 1990s. For nearly 26 years, Julia provided thousands of residents in the Western communities with fresh produce, locally grown and made foods, along with beautiful plants and flowers.
As Julia navigated two successful careers, she also raised her three children as a single Mom, something she was also very proud of. Richard Alan Wiesner. Jr., her only son, was brain damaged at an early age, and this led Julia to become an advocate for not only Richie’s personal care, but also for exceptional children all over the country. Her love for the people that truly had no voice still speaks volumes today.
Julia is survived by her loving husband, Robert Donn Whitehead of Wellington, FL; daughters, Laura Ruth Barbone (Steven Elias) of Stuart, FL and April Jean Hart (Tim) of Lake Clarke Shores, FL; and son, Richard Alan Wiesner, Jr., of Lake Worth, FL; grandchildren, Chloe Rayne Konrady, Emma Rose Konrady and Coleman Campbell Hart; great grandson, Coast Konrad Franco; brother, Michael Wayne Campbell (Darlene) of Georgiana, AL; close friend/sister, Ann Owens of Montgomery, AL; sister-in-law, Judy Campbell of Spanish Fort, AL; nephews, Todd, Ben, and David; nieces, Amy, Elisa, Stephanie, Melissa, Leigh, and Lacey, along with numerous cousins, grandnephews and nieces and countless friends who became her family.
She was predeceased by her parents, Henry and Ruthie Mae Campbell; brothers, Henry Campbell and Curtis Campbell along with her sisters, Dorothy Huggins and Pam Campbell.
