Obituary: Larson, Julieanna Hope

LARSON, Julieanna Hope Our Beautiful Princess and Precious Beauty Our hearts are heavy beyond words and we will never be the same, but we are so truly blessed because of the time we have had with our precious Julieanna.

While she fought hard to stay with us, she earned her Angel Wings following an intercranial bleed which was brought on by Addisonian Crisis.

Julieanna Hope was born on February 15, 2002.

From day one, she was a fighter.

Born prematurely and weighing only 1 pound, 10 ounces, she overcame a tough beginning to her life.

She later endured the loss of her 4 year old brother, Cooper, to brain cancer.

Julieanna brought nothing but pure joy and constant sunshine to us all for 13 years with her spunk, curiosity, humor, warmth and beauty.

Julieanna embraced life and enjoyed the simple things.

She loved catching bugs with Cooper, blowing bubbles and doing everything together with him at a young age.

Family was so important to her.

She loved to get whomever she was with in a circle for a group hug.

Next to her family, her second love was her love of animals.

Oh how Julieanna loved horses, spending time at the cabin and she especially and a pure love for her dogs, Chloe, Brown Dog, Gunner and her cat, Lilo.

She also loved spending time with her best friend and cousin Isabella, cousin Max, brothers Blaze and Austen, as well as all of her friends.

While Julieanna’s life was far too short, we will forever cherish the quality of time we had with her.

Those who were touched by her will remember not only her sparkling blue eyes, blonde beauty, and radiant smile, but her inner beauty, strength and charm.

Although we will miss her deeply, she will forever remain in our hearts.

Julieanna is survived by her parents Angela and Dave Larson and Jennifer Cooper-Brienza; brothers Blaze Larson and Austen Silvers; grandparents Joe and Susie Larson, grandmother Theresa Lawrence, grandfather Paul Cooper, grandparents Steven and Kristi Smith; aunt Julie Larson, uncle Ryan and aunt Rae Lawrence; Great-Grandpa Larson; numerous cousins, great-aunts and uncles.

She is preceded in death by her brother, Cooper Larson, grandfather Roland Lawrence, grandmother Sue Cooper and great-grandparents.

Visitation will be held on Friday, October 16th from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at Hillcrest Memorial Center, 9353 West Clearwater Avenue, Kennewick, WA 99336.

A Funeral Mass will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 17th, at Saint Joseph’s Catholic Church, 520 S. Garfield St., Kennewick WA 99336.

Memorial donations can be made through Hillcrest Memorial Center.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude and appreciation to family, friends and the community for all of your love and support.

A special thank you also goes out to Julieanna’s team of doctors and nurses for all of the love, compassion and support they gave to us and, most importantly, Julieanna.

WE LOVE YOU more than the moon and all the stars above!
