Julia passed away June 30, 2015 while surrounded by her family.  She was born June 28, 1929 in Ralls, Texas to Rodolfo and Feliciana Luna Garcia. She was the 5 ^th of 12 children, and later raised and adopted by Pedro and Florencia Muiz Garcia the oldest of nine children.  Julia married Pedro G. Rocha in Lubbock, Texas, and together raised their 6 children.

Julia was a wonderful wife of 58 years and she was a very loving mother, caring grandmother and great grandmother.  She is loved by all of her family and all those who came to know her. She loved to talk to people and always made friends everywhere she went.
