Julia was born in Ercsi, Hungary. After World War II, she became a "Displaced Person." She left Hungary and came to the United States with her two brothers and son. She spent a year in New York, then came to Elkhart and married her husband, Stephen. Julia was an industrious person. She worked all her life up until two years ago. For the last decade or so of her life, she spent taking care of "older" friends. In the past year, she was helping out in a soup kitchen, Suzanna's Kitchen. Julia was always busy. She loved to cook, especially Hungarian dishes and her specialties were Hungarian desserts. Many friends and family members enjoyed her kiflis and kolach during the holidays. She was frequently crocheting afghans for others and doing many other kinds of needlework projects. When her husband Stephen was alive, they enjoyed travelling with various organized travel groups. When Hungarian music was playing, Julia was ready to dance! Julia loved her family and enjoyed spending time with them. She was a kind-hearted and generous person. She will be remembered for her youthful spirit and her never ending energy. A gathering of family and friends will be held 1 hour prior to the 2:00 P.M. celebration of life service on Sunday, September 21st, at Billings Funeral Home, 812 Baldwin Street, Elkhart. Memorial contributions may be made to the First Congregation Church in c/o Suzanna's Kitchen in memory of Julia.
