Julie D. Albert Koch

Julie D. Koch (Albert), 47, of North Vernon, Indiana has now fully transitioned into the Lord’s arms and with all her dearly missed loved ones and out of pain and stress on Tuesday March 31st, 2026. Julie was born on June 7th, 1978, in Cherry Point, North Carolina. Julie was married to Paul Koch on September 19th 2019. Julie was also previously employed as a level II wireless technician for a period of time at Telamon Corporation for 3 years, then AT&T as a level II installer for fiberoptic around the United States. To say Julie traveled and has seen is an understatement, she was able to soak in a lot of the traveling and beauty in life just by doing those hardworking jobs. She was such a hard worker, she had working hands, she had stories, and she was able to provide for her boys. Even though she would struggle at points like very many of us do, she was still able to make sure her boys had clean clothes, a roof over their heads, toys/games, and of course the best of all; food. Julie has had a rough upbringing, she still provided for her boys and always put them before herself, until her last breath.

Julie was a beautiful kindhearted soul who would and did do anything for her boys. She always bragged about her three boys and how smart, well mannered, caring, and strong they are. She never truly gave herself enough credit for any of that, but she did always brag about having her boys and always taking care of them the best she could. She also loved music, flowers, the Kelly Show, any talent show like The Voice, her baby dog Gracie, and movies that were mostly action packed, silly comedies, soap operas, and rom-coms. Julie passed too soon and unexpectedly. She had so much love to give to the world and constantly chased love hoping to just be rich in it. She is rich with love from her boys, it will never stop.

Julie was preceded in death by her mother, Melody Estes; beloved step-father, Ronald Estes; brother, David Anderson IV; and first husband, Andrew Albert, the father of their amazing three strong boys.

Survivors include her three sons, Andrew (Ashlee) Albert, Kyle (Nancy) Albert, and Gavin (Shelby) Albert; sister, Melissa Anderson; father, Dave Anderson; grandchildren, Noah Albert, Cooper Albert, Hazel Albert, Mercy Albert, and Luke Albert; and husband, Paul Koch.

Julie had such a warm heart and always welcomed people with open arms, she had a whole army of angels waiting for her and to accept that love in heaven now she is with them and gets to feel that eternal warmth and comfort. You are loved so much Julie and you will be missed. Thank you for everything you taught to everyone who has met you in your life. We love you.
