Remembrances |
|
“I watched Julie grow up in Ukiah. In the early 1970s, Julie's mom Jewel Runnels took the courageous step of moving up to Redwood Valley. She was blind and physically disabled. I worked at the local welfare department which was a few block from where Jewel and Julie lived. I visited frequently on my lunch hour. Julie was a bright and curious little girl, who had a million questions about everything. She'd ask and then sit back and actually listen. She was smart and loved to read to adults. She was really helpful with her mom, who couldn't see to take care of some houe needs. Julie was a spunky and bright young girl. I'm so sorry she didn't have a chance to grow up.
” - Laura Johnston Kohl“Reading about your story brought tears to my eyes. I too was a foster child and I know how brave you were until the bitter end when you kept spitting the poison out until you were forced to swallow. Your life ended before it had truly begun. You won't be forgotten.” - Amber J. Boyd“It really broke my heart watching the news footage of Jonestown survivor Odell Rhodes describing how you were murdered on Nov. 18th, 1978. You fought so hard for your life, refusing to take the deadly potion. I'll never forget you or all the victims of Jonestown. May God bless you as you rest in eternal peace.” - Christopher Garrett |
