Julia Francis Seidl

With heavy hearts and deep gratitude for a life so beautifully lived, we announce the passing of Julia Francis Seidl, whose kindness, strength, and unwavering love touched everyone blessed to know her. Julia was born on August 18, 1939, in Fort Collins, Colorado, but her heart always belonged to Cheyenne, Wyoming, the city she called home for the rest of her life. She was proud of her roots and cherished the lifelong friendships and memories she built there. Julia graduated from Central High School in 1958, beginning a new chapter that would forever shape her life. On August 19, 1958, she married the boy next door, Stanley Seidl Sr. What began as a neighborhood romance became a lifelong love story. Stanley swept Julia off her feet, and together they built a beautiful marriage grounded in love, faithfulness, laughter, and devotion. They shared countless memories until his passing, and there is comfort in knowing they are reunited once again.

Julia dedicated 17 years to Walmart, where she became known for providing some of the finest customer service anyone could experience. She greeted every customer with warmth, kindness, and a genuine smile that made people feel welcome. Her caring spirit left a lasting impression on coworkers and customers alike. Above all else, Julia treasured her family. She was a loving wife, devoted mother, proud grandmother, and cherished great-grandmother whose greatest joy came from the people she loved. Her wisdom, gentle heart, strength, and unconditional love created a legacy that will live on through the generations she leaves behind.

Julia was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Eugene V. Hess and Margaret R. Mantey Hess; her loving husband, Stanley Seidl Sr.; her son, Stanley Seidl Jr.; her grandson, Jonathan Seidl; her son-in-law, Larry Brown; her grandson-in-law, Ronsky Collins; and her siblings, Mary Jean McAffee, Joan Bogensberger, Geraldine Hess, and Dale Hess.

She is lovingly remembered by her devoted daughter, Susan Brown; her siblings, Ken Hess and Irene Hess; her granddaughter, Jennifer Collins; her great-grandchildren, Juliana Seidl, Tavianna Seidl, Jonathan Strong, and Juliena Collins; along with many extended family members, dear friends, neighbors, and all whose lives were enriched by knowing her. Julia's life was a beautiful example of love, loyalty, hard work, and compassion. Though our hearts are broken by her passing, we rejoice in knowing she has been reunited with the love of her life and those who went before her. Her memory will continue to guide us, her love will remain in our hearts, and her legacy will never be forgotten. Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever in our hearts.
