Ms. Julia Gudger was a wonderful person and I admired her very much. My sincerest condolences – Fred Charlton, Staff Member, Crescent View Retirement Community
My prayers and condolences go out to the family and friends of Julia. I worked in the insurance office with Julia for awhile after joining American Enka. She taught me a lot about work, life and how to smile through it all.
Dear Dick, Frankie and Beth,
Please know that our sincere sympathy is with you as we share the loss of the lovely Julia. You are in our prayers.
Love, Wilb & Mary Netherton
Julia was so wonderfully sweet with an unforgetable always present smile. She meant much to me during my high school and college days. While she was never blessed with children of her own, she would have made a SUPER mother. Had she beem my mother, I would have been proud to have call her ‘Mom.’
My condolences are with the Gudger family. I remember in my youth riding with Mr. and Mrs. Gudger to perform in the square dance competitions of which they were our mentors. Those were the good times.
