Julie Wilson Hochman,
73, passed peacefully on September 26th, 2015, of lung cancer. Born in Pine Bluff; Arkansas. Lovingly welcoming Julie on the other side are her mother and father, Helen and Woody Wilson and her Dandie Dimont terrier, Parnelli J. DoWell. Julie attended North Central High School and Indiana University. Under contract with RCA, Julie was a singer with the trio, the Deb-Tones and counted fellow recording artists like the Everly Brothers as friends. The Deb-Tones appeared on the Lawrence Welk and Patti Page Shows. They also toured Iceland and Greenland with the USO and the Indiana Belles.
Julie was a sale associate with Wasson's, a Girl Scout Leader and made delicious fried chicken and potato salad.
Julie was the Regional Chairman for two years for the March of Dimes, coached softball at Allisonville Little League, and was an accomplished swimmer. Julie was a member of Congregation Beth-El Zedeck and a Life Member of Hadassah.
Julie was a manufacturer's representative with the Chicago firm of Duncan & Co., selling over one hundred lines throughout Indiana. An avid crossword puzzle solver, Julie was independent, highly intelligent and an excellent conversationalist, always available with sound advice for her family and friends. She was generous of nature and an animal lover (especially her horse, Lady Baltimore and, her favorite dog, Parnelli). Julie possessed numerous close friends to whom she was loyal throughout her life. Julie will be fondly remembered and sorely missed.
Julie is survived by her husband, Stephen; daughters, Allison Hochman and Claire (Chris) Hochman-Heffner; and sister, Diane Burnett.
Special thank-yous to Julie's angelic Community North's Hospice caregivers, including Angela, Kristin, Melissa Hill, Tammy and Jackie.
Soon, Julie will be carried by mountain winds and soar with golden eagles.
