In Loving Memory of Julie Hill

By Julie Hill

In Loving Memory of Julie Hill.

A message from Annie Crawford, Founder

In the true spirit of Can Too, Julie Hill was farewelled at Manly Beach on Sunday with a run and swim. Julie's partner Dave, her family from the UK, her friends and fellow Can Tooers gave quiet reflection and a send off with orange flowers. There was no more fitting way to remember this incredible woman who epitomises what Can Too stands for.

Jules joined the Can Too community in 2011, and went on to complete 11 run, ocean swim or triathlon training programs, raising over $10,000 for cancer research and prevention.

Outside of Can Too she was a Project Statistician in the pharmaceutical industry and led a number of projects in the therapeutic areas of oncology.

Four years ago Jules was diagnosed with cancer.

Jules was fun, cheeky and spirited, but it was with her cancer diagnosis that her incredible strength of character shone through. Throughout her treatment, Jules still ran, swam, and volunteered with a courage and stoicism that was so inspiring to all of us.

Jules lived until she died. She never gave up, she was always optimistic, positive and brave, and always with a smile on her face.

This will be her legacy. She really was a true Can Tooer.

Several community members have suggested fundraising to fund a training pod in honour of Jules.

Thank you for honouring this memory
