She was preceded in death by her father Al Sanchez, whom she missed and thought about daily, we are sure he was there to welcome her with open arms, along with her grandparents Sam and Marylou Grijalva.

Julie got her BS in Accounting from Western New Mexico University in 1990, her Masters of Business Administration from New Mexico State University in 1995, and recently obtained her Culinary Arts degree because cooking was her passion.
