Very sad news. A very unique individual with wide ranging interests from sports history to Asian art. Among a very small percentage of female collectors and among an even smaller percentage of collectors who, although not wealthy, once sold a significant part of her collection to donate to African Famine Relief. I was fortunate to have met and become friends with Julie and her late husband Bob and enjoyed every visit over several decades. I'm sure that she is already hard at work in her new venue making sure that all of the wings are in perfect shape, no strings are missing from the harps, and that the pearly gates are allowing equal access. Rest in Peace.
