Obituary of Julia "Julie" Agnes Yurkewich

Julia “Julie” Agnes Yurkewich March 07, 1939 – September 12, 2022 It is with sorrowful hearts that we announce the passing of Julia Yurkewich at the age of 83 years. After a brave battle with cancer, the family finds comfort in knowing that Julie is at rest from this storm and has entered into her eternal peace. Julie will always be treasured in the hearts of her husband, Stanley Yurkewich; children, Gary, Ron (Becky), Barb Volf, Peter, Brenda and Yvonne; her grandchildren, Raylene, Ty, Cory, Missy, Kirstie, Brett, Amy and Tyson, along with her six great-grandchildren. Julie will also be treasured in the heart of her brother, Clifford. Julie was predeceased by her parents, Nursey and Louise Howse; her brothers and sister; son-in-law Harvey; her parents-in-law and one precious baby girl, who passed away at birth. Julie found great pleasure in tending her farm animals and her garden, and the family will always remember what a great cook she was. While Julie enjoyed such activities as Bingo and Crossword puzzles, her greatest passion was for her grand and great-grand children. In Lieu of flowers, the family would ask that a donation in honor of Julie’s name be made to the Cross Cancer Institute, 11560 University Ave, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 1Z2.
