From Ogden Standard-Examiner (Ogden, UT) - January 10, 2010:
Mary Theresa Prescott Julian, age 88, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by her loving and devoted family on Friday, January 8, 2010.
Tess was born on August 16, 1921 in Grace, Idaho. She was raised in Wendell, Idaho where she spent many hours on horseback and in the out-of-doors with her beloved father and brothers. She graduated from Wendell High School in the class of 1939. In 1943, Tess joined the WAVES in the United States Navy. After an Act of Congress allowed women to enter a war zone, Tess set sail with the first group of WAVES to the Territory of Hawaii after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. She was always very proud of her military service.
Shortly after her two and a half years tour of duty ended in the Territory of Hawaii, Tess met a handsome young Lieutenant in the Army Air Corps, Austin "Gus" Julian. They married in 1948 and spent thirty more years in service to their country with the United States Air Force.
Tess always loved sports. She played semi-professional basketball and softball and loved to participate in bowling leagues.
Throughout her life, Mom was well-known for her wonderful, though feisty kindness and deep respect for others. She had great love for her country and her Idaho ranching heritage. Her life was spent devoted to civic responsibilities which included Girl Scout leadership in three states.
Tess is survived by her husband of 61 years, Austin A. Julian, USAF Col., Ret., daughters, Linda Zorich Dorsett (Tracy) of Pottsboro, TX, Donna Julian of Henderson, NV, and Susie Sommerkorn (Wilf) of Kaysville, UT. She is also survived by six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held Monday, January 11th, 2010 at 12 noon at the Kaysville 10th Ward, 1039 East Crestwood Rd, Kaysville. A viewing will be held one hour prior. Services under the direction of Lindquist's Layton Mortuary, 1867 N. Fairfield Road. Interment will be at Camp Williams on Wednesday, January 13th.
