• Name	Julia Ruth Grow  [1, 2, 3]
  Born	13 Dec 1910	Diamondville, Lincoln, Wyoming   [1, 2]
  Gender	Female
  Died	11 Jan 2000	Tustin, Orange, California   [1]
  	Julia was born the ninth of eleven children born to Walter Grow and Isabell Bryson. Siblings are: Ethelyn, Walter, Cantwell, Isabell, Evelyn, Theodore, Raymond, Grace, Arlene, and Karl. Julia Ruth Grow married Herbert Hartog Wilcox on 04 January 1930 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Julia and Herbert had three children; Patricia (1931) and twins Donald and Nayon (1932). Donald died of pneumonia in December 1932. The Wilcox Family left Salt Lake City in January 1938 bound for California, looking for work and hope of a better life during the depression years. Herbert found work as a custodian and professional painter. Julia also worked to support her family, counter sales and advancement to store manager with Martha Washington Candies and bookkeeper with Electrolux Corporation were some of her employment accomplishments. Daughters Patricia and Nayon both married giving her six grandchildren and two more step (though she would not have looked at it that way, family was family) grandchildren. Julia was widowed in December 1958 and never remarried. To support herself she worked in the import-export business and retired at the age of 78. She enjoyed her family, the performing arts, movies, travel, and chocolate. Julia could no longer care for herself on her own, and the decision was made to sell her home of sixty years in San Francisco and move to an assisted living home in Tustin, California. This is where granddaughter, Julia and her family lived, and she would have someone with her always. In Tustin Julia was treated to many new experiences, some simple like going out to dinner or driving around the neighborhood to look at the holiday lights, some extravagant like High Tea at the Ritz Carlton at Christmas time. Throughout her life Julia was active and faithful in the Mormon Church. Brother Karl and Bishop Mark Redman gave her a Priesthood Blessing on 08 January 2000. She passed quietly sitting upright in a chair. Her last wishes were to be creamated and ashes released to the sea. _________________________________________________________
