Julia "Julie" Ann Glenn passed away on May 30, 2025, at Page Memorial Hospital in Luray, Virginia, at the age of 69. A beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, Julie's life was marked by compassion, adventure, and creativity.

Born on November 30, 1955, in Kankakee, Illinois, to Casimer Joseph Gulczynski and Mary Edith Butler, Julie spent her life dedicated to helping others. Following her passion for healthcare, she earned degrees in Laboratory Medical Technology and Nursing and devoted 30 years of service to Fox Developmental Center in Dwight, IL.

A creative soul, Julie found joy in painting, photography, and crafting, while her adventurous spirit led her to hobbies like scuba diving, skydiving, and traveling the world. An animal lover, she dedicated years to breeding and showing Irish Wolfhounds. Above all, Julie treasured her role as a mother to her three daughters and embraced her time as a devoted grandmother.

Julie's resilience in facing cancer diagnoses, her joyful spirit, and her motto of not worrying until there was cause touched the lives of all who knew her. She will be remembered for her fierce independence, unwavering strength, and the legacy of love, courage, and joy she leaves behind.

Julie is survived by her children Kelly Ann Frey, Kristen Marie Blyth, and Megan Renee Todd, along with her siblings and grandchildren. She will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by all who knew her.
