Following her graduation, Julie moved to Colorado where she met her future husband. On November 28, 1970, Julie married Lawrence Carl Moreira at Christ Lutheran Church in Norfolk.

Julie was employed at Rasley Dry Cleaners before becoming the receptionist at the Norfolk Medical Group. She retired at 55 after many years of service.

She enjoyed creating crafts and painting. One of her favorite activities was decorating her home for Christmas and other holidays. She and Larry were active in the Norfolk Frontiersmen. However, her passion was taking care of her family.
