Julianne Follett, fondly known to everyone as Julie or Jules, was born February 10, 1953 in Quincy, Massachusetts. Julie graduated from Middleborough High School in 1971.
Julie worked for Sears Roebuck & Company for 22 years in Mass and Florida before finding her passion for nursing.

Julie worked for Munroe Regional Medical Center for 26 years in numerous nursing positions, providing guidance and mentoring to nurses throughout the hospital, as well as a good laugh, her entire career.
Julie loved spending time with her family, especially her grandkids, and cooking a good meal. She loved St. Patrick’s Day, being a Nana, playing bingo, avidly collecting pigs, reading ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas to everyone on Christmas Eve while wearing her elf hat, and telling a good joke with her wicked sense of humor, all while chewing on her beloved ice chips and beating everyone at Words with Friends.
