With heavy hearts, we share the passing of Julia (Julie) Baird, who passed away on September 22, 2026.

Julie was a funny outgoing beautiful woman that was well known around the area. It seemed like everywhere she went; someone knew her. She loved spending time with her family and friends and always knew how to have a good time and live life to the fullest.

Julie loved playing pool, fishing, cooking, dancing, gambling, and especially her two cats; Buttons and Katie.

Julie was preceded in death by her mother and father, Rose and Julian, her husband Clark, and daughter, Constance (Connie) Mester.

She leaves behind her children, Salvatore (Sal) and Phyllis Governale and Susan (Suzie) Fill. Julie was blessed with grandchildren Stephanie Thaxton and Tiffany Osborne. Additionally, she has great grandchildren: Rayven, Dominick, Isaiah and Xavier Thaxton, and Paige, Kaitlyn, Trinity, Asher, and Madison Osborne as well as seven great-great grandchildren.

Julie will be remembered for her silly laughter, her goofy personality, and all the good times she shared with those who knew and loved her while making great memories.

Whether you knew her as Julie, Ma, Nanna, or Doo Dah, she was loved by many and will be deeply missed and never forgotten. You got that!
