Life at HUC without Julie is absolutely unthinkable. I'm still in utter disbelief that she is gone. There is too much to say about her, too much I will miss. Pretty much the first thing I learnt when I joined HUC is how to spell and pronounce Kropacz, that's how integral she was. I'm sure everyone else did too... I have felt so sad and shocked these last few days. I will miss her sense of humour, her wry wit - saying something in 3 words that I need 20 for - and her MASSIVE knowledge and expertise. What Julie didn't know wasn't worth knowing. She was always so supportive, always there when you needed her. Over the years, Julie was an inspiration for all of us, her passion, her discipline and dedication. I remember in one of my first wider team meetings, she was incredibly passionate about our patients - that ethos has inspired me ever since. I loved Julie and will miss her enormously. Her legacy, from this page alone, is immense, and our HUC team will do our best to do her proud. She will never be forgotten.
