On October 22, 2023, Julia Woolley Smith passed away peacefully at age 97. Her strong, little body was worn out from years of roller skating, skiing, gardening, canning, years of teaching second grade, entertaining, raising her four children, serving in the temple and twice as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Julia is the daughter of Gordon and Hazel Woolley. She was welcomed to her heavenly home by her: husband, Don, parents, sisters, Larona, Idalee, Twin sister Joyce, and her brother Gordon.
She is survived by her children: Shellee (Bruce) Clements, Lauree Simpson, Carol (Bruce) Sessions, Blaine (Kris) Smith, 17 grandchildren, and a growing number of great grandchildren. She was a selfless, spunky woman who was deeply devoted to her family, friends, and faith.
