Julia's love for music was more than a hobby; it was a shared journey with her beloved husband, Jake. Together, they were a familiar and adored duo at local gatherings, especially at the much-anticipated Pickin' in the Park events. Julia, a devout member of the Pentecostal faith, found her greatest joy in the warm embrace of family gatherings, where her presence was a source of comfort and happiness. In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her first husband, Paul E. Abbott; sons, Paul E. “PJ” Abbot Jr. and David L. Abbott; brothers, Tommy Martin, Jimmy Martin, and Donald Martin.

Those left to cherish her memory are her husband, Jake Booth; son, Eugene (Pam) Abbott; daughter, Tina (Stephen) Abbott Kolb; step-daughter, Judy Sheppard; sister, Barbara Spears; grandchildren, Debbie Abbott Hatchel, Darlene Abbott, Wayne Ford, Nicholas Ford, Stephanie Ford, Taylor Kolb, and Tyler Blaine Kolb; great-grandchildren, Aubriana, Sabrina, Lilly, Peyton, Gabriel, Kenna, Bryelle, and Realm.

A private family service will be held at Highland Memory Gardens at Godby, WV.
