Julie Briggs

With over 25 years of dedicated service in the funeral industry, I am honored to support families during some of their most challenging times, a calling that has become both my career and my passion. A proud Jacksonville native and member of a military family, I've had the privilege of living in various parts of the country, including Maine, Virginia Beach, and Tennessee, before returning home to Florida. Outside the office, my greatest joy comes from spending time with my family. I'm blessed with a wonderful son and daughter, and five beautiful grandchildren who fill my life with love and laughter.
