Obituary

Julie Ann Haberman (1952-2015) Julie Ann Haberman, 62, passed away in Dallas, TX on June 5, 2015.  She was born on July 15, 1952 in Geneva, Nebraska to John and Opal Haberman. She spent most of her youth in Fairbury, Nebraska, where she graduated from high school and attended community college. In 1976, Julie moved to Corpus Christi, TX, where she trained to be a nurse.  Afterward, she moved to Dallas, TX, to work as an RN at St. Paul’s Hospital. Julie spent her career in the healthcare field, both as an RN and in management positions with various healthcare companies. Co-workers, physicians and patients regularly spoke of her excellence as a nurse. Her intelligence and creativity were also shown in her inventions, including MenuMate®, one of the first illuminated optical readers for restaurant goers. Julie’s unique and lovable spirit touched many people – family, friends and co-workers. She had the ability to draw people to her and form life-long friendships, some greater than 50 years. She not only had many friends, but also encouraged and developed circles of friends by planning and hosting events that brought people together. Strangers became friends, resulting in strong bonds and loyalty that have grown through the years. Her greatest pride was in her daughters, Brittany Mason-Mah and Jordan Mason. Friends and family see Julie’s traits in both daughters: integrity, intelligence, dedication, a sense of humor, a love of travel and fun, and a great warmth of spirit. Julie was beautiful and elegant – both externally and internally. In addition, she had courage and a strong will to live, as witnessed by many that had the pleasure of caring for her. Her strength and dignity during her struggle with cancer was an inspiration to all. Julie Haberman is preceded in death by her parents, John and Opal Haberman of Fairbury, NE, her grandparents, Henry and Mollie Haberman and James and Margaret Marshall, and her sister-in-law, Cindy Haberman. She is survived by her daughters and sons-in-law Brittany Mason-Mah and Colby Mah and Jordan Mason and Louis Toms, all of Dallas; her brother Jim Haberman of Forreston, TX; her sister Nancy Dunning and brother-in-law Wayne Dunning of Dallas; four nieces: Jennifer Jackson of Maypearl, TX, Amy Thompson of Maypearl, TX, Katie Haberman of Forreston and Maggie Haberman of Forreston; two aunts; several cousins; and numerous friends. Services will held on June 25, 2015 at 2:30 p.m. in the chapel of the North Dallas Funeral Home, 2710 Valley View Lane, Dallas, TX 75234. Following the service, family and friends are invited to an End of Life Celebration which will be held at Ashton Gardens, 2001 Ashton Gardens Lane, Corinth, TX. The Celebration begins at approximately 4:30 p.m. on June 25.   Arrangements are under the direction of: ARIA Cremation Service & Funeral Home 19310 Preston Road, Dallas, TX 75252 214-306-6700

    Jim and Nancy and families, I was shocked and saddened to learn of Julie Ann’s passing. Since we all grew up together, I have many great memories of all of you. We played hide and seek, kick the can and ghost at midnight, to name a few. Jim and Rusell Boeckner would always scare us and they would laugh like crazy! How many times did we sled down F Street from your house all the way down to the library, then trudge up the hill, dragging our sleds to your house, just to do it again? I also remember how Julie, Nancy, my sister, Patty, and I would play on your front porch. Among tea parties and other fun things, Julie was always playing nurse and we were her patients. It’s no surprise to discover how her future turned out! God blessed her with many talents and a loving,caring,happy nature that affected all those whom she encountered. Every time I go by “your” house,I am reminded of our childhood and even high school days. Thank you for sharing it all with me! My deepest sympathies to you and yours, and to Julie’s family.You are in my thoughts and prayers and I know Julie Ann is with your mom and dad in Heaven!–Lots of love to each of you, Linda Ann!

    I am heartbroken to learn that Juli is gone. We worked together at NTHN & Pinnacle Anesthesia. She was a mentor to me & I cherished her advice @ friendship. I know she is looking down & watching over her family. I will miss her dearly.

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
