On Sunday, December 1, 2024, at the Red River Place, Julie, aged 90 years passed away.
Julie is survived by her husband of 69 years, Herb; sons, Dwight (June), Jeff (Wanda) and Kelly; daughter-in-law Cindy. She also leaves behind her grandchildren, Dale, Mike, Rick, Ben, Sherri, Melanie and Ashley along with their families; as well as her sisters, Helen and Jean.
Julie was predeceased by her parents, Albert and Nellie Eskra; son Jim and her brothers, Steve, Joe, Pete, Mike and Orest.
Mom was born in Hafford, SK and moved to Selkirk in 1953 to study Psychiatric Nursing, graduating in 1955. It was during this time she met her future husband, Herb. They were married on August 6, 1955, and raised their four sons in Selkirk. As well as being a wife and mother, she had her nursing career working at the Selkirk Mental Health Centre until her retirement in 1993.
Mom loved the outdoors, her garden, flowers and particularly the cottage at Barrier Bay in the Whiteshell. She loved being there with family and friends. It was truly her happy place.
Mom and dad enjoyed travel, visiting Hawaii, Florida, Singapore and cruising the Caribbean. They also spent many winters in Arizona making many friends.
We would like to thank the staff at Red River Place for their care and compassion especially Harpreet, Matthew, Beata and of course Cindy.
Cremation has taken place and a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

Herb and family. So sorry for the loss of Julie and your Mom. It was a long time since I saw you two, then more often at S. Beach Casino where the two of you had fun. Mom and Bert were there too, often with me also trying to win the big one so we all had our little conversations. It was a coincidence that you all ended up at Red River but it was also nice to share some words and stories. My Mom, Julie and Herb were friends for many, many yrs. - Posted by: Debbie Fedyck/ Smithson (My Mothers friend. I also knew her.) on: Dec 22, 2024
