I was saddened to hear of Fern's passing this week and wish to extend my condolences to Linda, Diane and Karen and their families. I have so many wonderful memories of the 1960's and 1970's with the Julmis: school, church, snowmobiling and in the East St. Paul community. Fern always had a smile and a ready laugh, as well as an optimistic outlook on life despite challenging circumstances. I've mostly lived away from Winnipeg for the past many years; my parents, Audrey and Alan Taylor, have kept me posted on most of the local news. This event was hard to hear. With warm regards, Barbara Taylor Victoria, BC - Posted by: Barbara Taylor (East St Paul neighbor and friend of the family) on: Mar 27, 2012
