I remember Julie as such a sweet lady. My dad worked with Adolph many years. Saw her at my Mothers Rosary, and it was so good to see her and speak with her again. Peace be with you

Julie was my second mom. So many wonderful memories of her from my earliest childhood through to today. She was kind, thoughtful, nurturing, loving, interested in everything we did, and a great parent. She lived a long, happy, and productive life that touched many people and made the world a better place. Love to Diana, Deb, and Denise and the entire Bartelli family.

I will always remember Mrs. Bartelli's smile, her kindness to me, and her cappellettis. I am pleased that she lived such a long and productive life. I realize that she has outlived most of her contemporaries, but she will be missed.
