Julie A. Loomis, 79, of Davie, Florida, passed away peacefully on December 3, 2025.
Born on March 31, 1946, in La Porte, Indiana, Julie was the beloved daughter of Kenneth and Phyllis Hoover. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Kenneth Loomis. Julie is survived by her brother Gerard Hoover and his wife Cherie, her brother-in-law Roger Loomis, her daughters Kimberly Jennessee (Craig) and Jennifer Loomis, her grandchildren Emily and Wyatt, and her great-grandchildren Lainey and Casey.
Julie dedicated her life to pediatric care, spending nearly 50 years with Pediatric Associates in Hollywood, Florida. She began her career as a medical assistant and, through hard work and compassion, rose to become Director of Clinical Services and then Director of Case Management, a role she held until her retirement in 2016. Her colleagues and patients alike admired her unwavering commitment to children’s health and her supportive nature.
In retirement, Julie found joy in weekly card games with neighbors, trips to Disney with her longtime friends, and most of all, doting on her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be remembered as supportive, generous, and deeply patriotic, leaving behind a legacy of love and devotion to her family, friends, and community.
The family will receive friends at Boyd-Panciera Family Funeral Care, University Drive Chapel on Sunday, December 14, 2025, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM with a tribute to Julie’s life starting at 3:00 PM.

Julie was such a sweet, kind and very pretty lady! Her love for her dogs was like no other except, of course, her 2 legged non furry family members whom she and Ken treasured and adored! We enjoyed watching the Dobies play and the littlest one rule the roost from her little stroller. Knowing Ken and Julie are now together forever brings comfort to the broken hearts of family and friends. May they rest in peace.

In the ten years I had the privilege of working under Julie’s guidance, I experienced the best years of my professional life. More than just an amazing Director, Julie was a true friend and a beacon of compassion. Her leadership style was defined by genuine kindness and an unwavering commitment to seeing her team grow and succeed. She didn’t just manage us; she believed in us.
One memory that will forever stay with me speaks volumes about her character. Julie made an earnest promise that work would never be the reason any of us missed our children’s school events. She extended this same courtesy, which had once been afforded to her by the first doctor she worked with, as a standard of care for her own team. When my children were sick, she didn’t wait for me to finish my request; she immediately told me to go take care of them.
She looked out for us in countless ways, embodying the supportive roles of both a mother and a friend. In all my years of working, I have never encountered another soul quite like Julie.
I will be forever grateful for the kindness and empathy she showed us all. We heard constantly about how much she loved her own family, and through those stories, we felt a part of that journey, too. Julie was the pure essence of compassion, and Pediatric Associates was profoundly blessed by her presence.
Thank you, Julie, for being such an impactful part of my life. You will be truly missed, but your legacy of kindness will endure.
With love, Nicole Rigg-Elkhargui

Julie was my client as long as I can remember. I did her hair until she lost it. She was a sweet and special lady and will be missed and remembered forever. I was sorry to hear she lost her battle earlier this month.
Rest in peace dear Julie.

It is a sad day for her family and friends. I had hoped to get to see her again before we left the building?
Julie was well liked in our class in Westville and was a very beautiful person with a big heart. I got to see
her at our 40th class reunion in LaPorte, Indiana. Did talk here on face book some but wish we could have
had a cup of coffee sometime? Her daughters are privileged to have had a mother like her! While I never
got to meet her husband who passed away a while back he was Michigan City, Indiana and his dad and Mr.
Hoover were in the Elks I believe. Great people and she will be missed but now in a better place and with
the Lord. It was a privilege to know their family and their generosity thru the years in Westville. My dad was
a good friend of theirs and always spoke highly of them. I wish the family success and prosperity in life and
know they like m were lucky to have had such good parents! Class of 64 Westville High School
