Julie Ann Lubesky 67, of Port Richey, died Aug 7, 2025, survived by husband, Raymond; children, Paul, Andrea, Lindsay; mother, Jeannette; five siblings.
She graced the world with her presence on May 29, 1958. She was the first daughter to Robert and Jeannette after two sons, Rob and Mark, whom she always looked up to and admired. Maryann and Kim followed and the three Ouellette girls created a beautiful and meaningful bond for life. Her baby brother Scott came along much later and became an uncle/friend to Julie’s first-born, Paul.
Mom was given her nickname “Tini” by her beloved father, Robert. She was petite and beautiful, kind and compassionate, and truly generous. She was also sassy, strong and perhaps a wee bit stubborn. Her willful determination was admired by all as we watched her fight her debilitating disease over the past thirty years. She struggled with the loss of her independence but she sure was resourceful.
She dedicated her life to caring for others. She worked as a nurse and a teacher. She was selfless and especially enjoyed working with the elderly. Above all, she loved her family. Ray and Julie built a beautiful life together raising three children. They traveled the world and shared countless adventures. As they became empty nesters, they poured their lives into their biker family. Madame Grace loved her fellow Maidens and Hearts, and made some lifelong friends no matter the distance. The club treated her like royalty, which she often said was too much (but we know she secretly loved it).
Julie’s favorite role in life was being a grandmother to Rachel, Charlie, Ben, Austin, Sidney, Ellie, Theo and Max. She was looking forward to becoming a great-grandmother to baby David due this November. Tini made sure she was at every birth and meaningful celebration. Even though they were often separated by many miles, she was always checking in and sending surprises in the mail.
She was the absolute best wife, mother, aunt, sister, friend and Tini. She loved crafting, sparkly things, wine and driving.
She is already deeply missed.

I am so terribly sorry to hear this news. Love, prayers and my sincere condolences to the entire family.
Love, Jeff (Mullet) & Holly (Speed Demon) Holden

Offering my sincere condolences for the sudden loss of Julie Ann. I have known her and her family through my dear friendship with her oldest child, Paul, whom I have known since we met in middle school in 1991. Julie was always very kind and welcoming to me when we would have sleepovers at their home in Jacksonville and I know how much she loved her family and her children. All my love and wishes for peace to Paul, Jennifer, Charlie, Ray, Andrea, Lindsay and the rest of the family.

It’s hard to believe that you’re no longer with us. I’m so thankful that when I met Paul 26 years ago, you welcomed me into the family with open arms. Your kind heart and warm energy always made me feel at home, and you treated me like one of your own.
I’m going to miss our family get-togethers, drinking wine and chatting about everyone. You were so proud of your kids, and nothing lit up your face more than talking about your grandkids (they were your whole world). Just like any Tini/Grandma should, you bragged about them with love and joy.
We all loved you to the moon and back, and you are already so deeply missed. I promise to help keep Paul & Charlie in line.
Love you always. xo

Julie was a remarkable person whose warmth, kindness, and gentle spirit touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. The love you shared was evident to all, and I hope you can find some comfort in the beautiful memories you created together.
To my Son-In-Law Paul, I was deeply saddened to hear of your mother’s passing. I know how much she meant to you, and I can only imagine the weight of this loss. Please know that my heart is with you in this difficult time.
Your mother’s warmth, kindness, and love for her family were evident to all who knew her. Though words can never fully ease the pain, I hope you find comfort in the beautiful memories you shared and in knowing how deeply she loved you.
To my beautiful Daughter Jennifer,

Charlie, I was so very sorry to hear about your grandmother’s passing. I know how much she loved you, and I also know how deeply you loved her. Losing someone so special is never easy.
Your grandmother was a remarkable woman—kind, wise, and always ready with a warm smile or a listening ear. She took great pride in you and the person you are becoming. The stories she shared, the lessons she taught, and the love she gave will stay with you forever.
God has her now and will take care of her always.

I wish you were here to give Max raspberries and make him laugh. Thank you for being the best mom and Tini We love you so much. Matt and I will keep your memory alive. I promise my babies will never forget you.

Andrea, Paul, Lindsay – I had the great fortune of knowing your mom for 26 years. Having a front row seat to witness her love, kindness and selflessness, I can say without a doubt, she loved you and her grandbabies more than any words can say. She always had a smile and a sweet, kind word for everyone, and gifts “just because”. Tini was the best and will be missed by so many. I love you guys.

Julie,
I miss you more than words can express. Not a day goes by that I don’t wish you were still here. You were such a precious friend to me—especially this past year. After moving to Florida, you became my closest friend and a bright light in my life.
Now I hold on to the memories we shared, even though they are bittersweet. I still find myself asking the question only God can answer… why.
I love you so much, and I will carry you in my heart always. 🤍
