After graduation, she continued her educational studies at Baylor University in Waco Texas.

In Dallas she met her husband William (Bill) M Eggert and they were married on November 24, 2007.

Julie was a shining light in many people’s lives that was extinguished way too soon. Her enthusiasm for her family both near and far was unrivaled. She leaves behind many lifelong friends both personal and professional. Julie was a Friend, a Sister, an Aunt, a Wife, and everyone that knew her would say that she excelled at all those titles and more. Though her loss is a shock and unbearably painful Julie would not want us to wrap ourselves up in a blanket of grief, instead she would wish us to reach for warm and comforting memories in which to wrap our bruised hearts. Life without Julie will go on, but it goes on just a little bit dimmer than before.
