Julie Ann (Osborne) James, born on August 31, 1952, in Santa Barbara, California, passed away peacefully in Eureka, California, on March 10, 2024. She was the beloved daughter of Ralph Osborne and Barbara Romero.

She loved music, was a talented dancer, and was a passionate and dedicated fan of the 49ers. However, her greatest joy came from dedicating her life to the care and nurturing of her children.

She is survived by her son, John-Paul James; her daughter, Alisa James; her brothers, Ken, Steven, and Jeff Osborne; as well as a loving extended family including aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and numerous cousins.

A celebration of Julie’s life will take place at St. Bernard Catholic Parish, located at 615 H Street in Eureka, on November 16 at 12 p.m. Julie will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
