We Remember
TOLLEY, Julie
February 5, 1958 — August 12, 2024
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the loss of Julie Tolley, who passed away while surrounded by her beloved daughters, on August 12, 2024, at the age of 66.
Julie now goes to join those who passed before her, including her husband Martyn Tolley; father Gord “Fergy” Ferguson; and niece Darcy Zelinski. Left to hold her memory dear to their hearts are her daughters Erin Durber (Jason) and Ashley Durber; grandchildren Peyton Durber, Brayden Fournier, Jordan Fournier, and Mackenzie Kingsmill; mother Tiny Ferguson; sister Lynn (Mike) Juhl; brother Gord (Gina); father of her children, Richard Durber; and many beloved extended family members, including Eric, Amy, Todd, Kyle, Chelsea, and Emma. Julie will also be deeply missed by her best friend Lisa.
Julie was a remarkable woman, known for her giving and generous spirit. She was loving and caring, always putting the needs of others before her own. Her compassion knew no bounds, and she was selfless in every way, constantly worrying about everyone but herself. Despite her positive outlook on life, she could be a bit stubborn, standing firm in her beliefs. Julie had a beautiful smile that could light up any room, and she found immense joy in making others happy.
Her family meant the world to Julie, and she especially adored her daughters and grandchildren. As an amazing sister to Lynn and Gord, she cherished every moment spent together.
Julie loved the beach, where she could relax and take in the beauty of the ocean. She also enjoyed going on outings, whether it was to explore new places or simply to indulge in her favourite fish n’ chips. Browsing shops for little knick-knacks was another one of her simple pleasures, always finding treasures that brought a smile to her face.
The world feels a little more lonely without Julie’s warm presence, as her love and radiant smile brought light to everyone she touched.
Family and friends will each remember Julie in their own way. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to the MS Society of Canada in Julie’s name.
