April
19, 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing Victim. Julie Welch was born in
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. After high school, Julie went to
Wisconsin and attended college at Marquette University in
Milwaukee, earning a B.A. in Spanish. Although her parents were
divorced, she kept in close touch with both of them while
attending college. After graduating, she traveled overseas to
sharpen her Spanish communication skills, then returned to
Oklahoma City where she was hired as an interpreter for the
Social Security Administration in the Alfred P. Murrah Building.
During her travels, she developed a strong compassion for those
less fortunate than herself. She frequently visited Little
Flowers Church, in a poor Hispanic region of Oklahoma City,
where she could speak with the Hispanic children and give them a
ray of hope for their future. Julie's own hope was to marry a
lieutenant whom she met at Tinker Air Force Base, but the terror
of April 19, 1995 shattered her dreams. While engaged in an
appointment with two Mexican men, the bomb went off, killing her
and her clients along with 165 others.
