ELDRED — Julie Ann Yeager, beloved sister and aunt, passed away unexpectedly Sunday (March 8, 2026) at her home in Eldred.

Julie was born in France, the daughter of Robert and Nancy Schneller Yeager, while her father was stationed there, serving in the U.S. Air Force. Julie graduated from John Jay High School in San Antonio, Texas, in 1975. She worked for many years as an administrative assistant at The Homeport Insurance Co. in Charleston, SC.

She was a member of the swim class for ladies at the Bradford YMCA, also doing monthly lunches with the ladies. She enjoyed quilting and belonged to the Tuesday Crafting Group with the Church of Christ in Bradford. She was also a longtime member of the Red Hat Society.
