   It is with great sorrow that I have to announce that <b>Julie Lessiter</b> lost her fight against Cancer and passed away peacefully at 19.00hrs on Wednesday 18th February.
   The footprints Julie leaves in my heart, and the lives of family and Friends are too deep to ever fade, Wonderful Memories will live on and on..[:)]
   
   Julie will be greatly missed by many.
   
   A natural burial will take place this "Saturday 28th February" and will be a closed family affair.
   I will arrange a get together for Friends and Work colleagues  to celebrate Julies Life and pay respects <b>Time , Date and Venue to be announced  </b>..[;)]
   
   As many of our Friends are all together  at the ACOC Awards / Dinner & Dance this Saturday 28th February, I propose to have a minutes Ovation/Celebration and
   raise a glass to Wish Julie all the best on her new journey.
   
   I take this opportunity to  personally thank all those who have sent cards, emails. text and made phone calls of condolence.
   Received from Friends / ACOC members in UK, France, Germany, Holland, Luxembourg  and USA.  a great cosmopolitan group indeed.
   
   <b>Keith and Family</b>.

Julie has been in our thoughts for so long now, battling with dignity and courage, but above all she was the definition of 'joie de vivre', and was there for Sue & myself at a time of need; and we will miss her.
   How appropriate to Clap, Cheer, Celebrate and raise a glass to the best memories, with a 'thank you' for having been a part of our lives...Sue & I will, wherever we are.

   Julie Lessiter 22/08/1964  -  18/02/2015
   .
   " A Gathering of Friends "  Sunday 29th March. .
   
   Julie's Burial took place on Saturday 28th February and was attended by close Family.
   
   I have organised " A Gathering of Friends " to celebrate Julie's Life. To take place in a Hotel in Oxfordshire on Sunday 29th March.
   12.30 to 18.00hrs. For drinks and a sit down buffet.
   I'm in the process of compiling a e-mail listing of Julies Friends / ACOC Friends and work colleagues, (Not 100% sure if I have everyone listed ?)
   In the meantime anyone wishing to attend and celebrate Julie's Life, can you please contact me on 07889 298226 or e mail me on:
   Keith.lessiter@faac.co.uk .
   
   Where upon I can confirm the venue and ensure I have laid on adequate catering and seating.
   
   Dress Code:-  Smart, Casual and Colourful
   
   No Flowers, Julie would have preferred Donations to MacMillan Cancer Support. (hopefully I can set up a gift aid in Julie's Name).....
   Last but not least I wish to compile a Slide show of Julie with Friends, please feel free to email any pictures you have which capture certain memorable
   moments for inclusion, for us all too share and enjoy.

   Looking forward to seeing all those who have replied to their invite to:-

   Julie would be somewhat flattered and surprised at the response, Truly remarkable, But there again she was such a remarkable and

   Over the past month or so had a few requests from Julies neighbours and work colleagues for a copy of the slide show shown at "Julie's Gathering."
   
   During the ACOC International in Luxembourg met up with many Friends who couldn't make "Julie's Gathering"
   
   In response have created  the following link of random pictures as a tribute to Julie:-
   
   Julie Lessiter`s Album
   
   
   Please feel free to copy or download a picture or two..[;)]
   
   
   Enjoy !!
