Julie Park Upadhyay brought warmth, laughter, and deep presence to everyone around her. She had a gift for truly listening and making people feel seen, whether through a shared joke, a dance, or a quiet conversation. Her love for life was infectious, and her impact on those closest to her—especially Sameer, Ella, and Devan—was lasting. As we honor her memory, we invite you to share your own stories, photos, or videos to help preserve the joy and spirit she brought into the world.
