View Julia's Video Tribute Julia C. Wroten (nee Ford) died on May 18, 2008 of the Lakebridge section of Deptford. Julia Celeste Wroten was born to Robert and Annie Bell Ford on March 3, 1912 and was one of eight children. Julia was born in Forest, Virginia and lived in Philadelphia, most of her years, and later moved to Deptford, New Jersey until her death. When growing up, she attended Armstrong Elementary and Dumbar High School. On December 19, 1941, Julia was united in holy matrimony to James B. Wroten Jr. They were blessed with one son, James and three daughters; Yvonne, Marilyn, and Darlene. Julia was a person, who through out her life loved to be among family. She was a loving Mother and devoted wife, and with her quiet spirit, brought much joy to all. As a mother, she loved children and had an open door policy to the neighborhood children, allowing them to feel right at home. Julia was very much involved in her children’s education, and community functions. She was an active and devoted member of both the Mount Carmel Baptist Church and Grace Temple Baptist Church. She was one who never complained, and when asked how she was feeling, she would always say, “I’m fine”. The most memorable times with Julia included, the family outings, sitting in the kitchen watching her as she prepared meals for the family, and her loving values taught through her tough love techniques. Julia leaves to cherish her; four children, one daughter-in-law, two son-in-laws, eleven grandchildren, twenty-one great-grandchildren and eight great-great grandchildren. Realizing that Jesus doeth all things well in perfect order and decency, we the family, submit to God’s will thanking him for the opportunity to be a part of Julia. Relatives and friends are invited to attend a viewing Saturday 9am to 10am at BOUCHER FUNERAL HOME, 1757 Delsea Dr., Deptford. INterment Rolling Green Memorial Parl, West Chester, Pa. A Tribute To Mom... We couldn't begin To count the times She tolerated our moods, Consoled our heartbreaks And disappointments, Endured our ups and downs, Listened to words confused by tears And just simply understood For no other reason Than because she loved us. The years hold precious memories, But most of all they hold growth. In a way, we grew up together... Mom is our definition Of a special person... Fantastic... Exceptional... Unique... Enduring! She filled our lives with happiness And sweet feelings that we will Carry in our hearts forever. The Best God saw you getting tired And a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you And whispered “Come to Me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, And saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
