May 23, 1946 - September 23, 2019
Julia “Julie” Graham Bryant, 73, passed away peacefully on September 23, 2019 at Robin Johnson Hospice after a very long courageous battle with breast cancer.
She was born on May 23, 1946, a daughter of the late Ellison Spencer Graham and Esther Barringer Graham.
Julie was preceded in death by her husband, William Larry Bryant and son, Spencer Scott Bryant.
Julie was born and raised in Salisbury, NC where she graduated from West Rowan in 1964. She then attended Business School at Gaston College. Julie worked for BellSouth Telecommunications as a major account representative for over 40 years. Julie was a member of the First Assembly of God, Gastonia for over 35 years where she often served as a greeter for the congregation on Sunday mornings. Julie had a beautiful soul and heart of gold always putting others first. With a sweet and gentle disposition and her unveiling faith in the Lord she was a friend to all who met her. She dearly loved her family and friends and more than anything enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren.
