She also worked for Cigna Insurance in California for seven years. Juliann married her husband, Edwin Koerperich on August 6, 1982 in Hastings, Nebraska. They have one son, Jason. Juliann dearly loved quilting and other crafts, and enjoyed being with her quilting friends and working on quilting projects at her home. She gifted a lot of these crafty items and quilts to the sick and the Brentwood Catholic parish women's altar society. She made over 500 quilts doing what she loved and could talk about each one as though she just made it yesterday. Anyone who received one of these will be wrapped in her love and warmth forever.
