Julie Anne Barker

The low rumble or gentle breeze you may have heard or felt at seven minutes after 1.00pm on June 25, 2025, was our lovely Julie passing through to a world beyond our comprehension, spreading her smile and joy. She will be with her husband David in spirit until they meet again somewhere, someplace, sometime. Dearly loved wife of David for 47 years, much loved daughter of the late William and Mary Hill, loved sister of Ian, and the late Robyn, special auntie of Stephen, David, Kathleen, and Melanie, great-auntie of Audrey, Natalie, and Adam. Lifelong friend of Lynette, Lesley, and Diana. Special thanks to the professional staff at Burlington Care Centre for making Julie’s last three years so comfortable. Special thanks also to the many residents who befriended Julie. Messages may be addressed to: The family of the late Julie Barker, c/- PO Box 39001, Christchurch 8545. A private funeral service will be held.
