Julie Ann Schmidtke
Dec. 15, 1965 — Aug. 7, 2012
Julie Ann Schmidtke, 46, died
unexpectedly in Longview, WA, after a
brief illness.
She was born in Portland. She
was adopted as a toddler by Gilbert and
Jeanette Schmidtke of Albany.
Julie attended both West and
South Albany high schools before moving
to Vernonia during her junior year. She
graduated from Vernonia High School
and lived in Vernonia for many years
before moving to Clatskanie. During
recent years she returned to Vernonia,
where she lived until the time of her
death.
She held several jobs during
her lifetime, including bartending,
waitressing, clerking, senior care, and
even owned a dog-grooming business at
one time.
Julie loved her boyfriend, Joe
Fennell; her family; her friends; and
her pets. She had a special place in her
heart for her godson and nephew, Julian
Bedolla; her nephew Jeffery Kitto; and
her nieces Arcila Bedolla and Maya
Moreno.
She especially loved her dog
Molly. She had a heart for animals, and
couldn’t resist caring for lost or abandoned
cats and dogs. She enjoyed spending time
with those she loved, listening to classic
rock, and she loved the outdoors. She was
an excellent cook and enjoyed teasing her
loved ones with her secret recipes.
Julie is survived by her boyfriend,
Joe; his daughters, Dakota and Makenna;
her sisters, Della McQueen of Lebanon,
Carol Groesbeck of Washington, and
Janice Schmidtke, Bonnie Calkins,
Marcia Schmidtke and Tracy Moreno, all
of Albany; many nephews and nieces; her
beloved Molly; and countless friends.
She was preceded in death by her
parents; her brother, Robert Schmidtke;
and her sister Deana Wyatt.
Julie was a true friend and a
wonderful sister. She will be missed by
all who knew her.
