Julie joined Link Publishing in November 1999 as Credit Controller and remained with the team until April 2020 when she suffered a stroke and medically retired. Julie was diagnosed with Leukemia in November 2022 and sadly passed away on March 10th, 2023. A straight talker who didn’t take any ‘rubbish’ from anyone, Julie was someone you wouldn’t want to cross! However, she was extremely kind, often looking out for the ‘newbies’ and taking people under her wing. Armed with a wicked sense of humour, she would often keep the office on our toes by 'treating' us to a range of exotic snacks which she would insist we tried. Last month, Julie had 'super spicy ramen noodles', scorpion-flavoured lolipops, and packets of siracha crickets delivered to the office and was sure to check in to see if any had been eaten. An extremely loyal and trustworthy member of staff, Julie was very hardworking hardly ever taking any time off. She loved to watch DVD box sets and was always ready with recommendations, her favourites being Dexter and Luther. Many in the industry and former members of staff will have their own fond memories of Julie having worked with her over the past two decades. Truly one of a kind, Julie will be bitterly missed.
