Julie and I were best friends in the 2nd and 3rd grade. And as it happens in a big city like LA, we went on to different schools and lost touch. In the '90s I became friends with Tony and reconnected with Julie when they started dating. We became friends again before realizing a few months later that we were the same childhood friends from Egremont.
I found an old yearbook from elementary school where she had written: "Aman - You are the craziest person I know..." I guess not a lot changed over the years!
Since both my parents passed away, Julie was always my one way of connecting back to my childhood, and I thought of her as family. We both even lived on different sections of Stagg Street in the valley.
Even without our childhood connection, I have been so lucky and fortunate to have Julie in my life and share in hers. There are so many things I'm grateful to her for personally, professionally, and in ways I can't even explain.
Julie, you will always be the most special, creative, and caring people I've ever known. - Love Aman
I just love the Three Amigos
