In Memoriam, Julie Moreno Franco, Formerly of Charles Garnier and Oro America March 07, 2021 (6 comments)
Los Angeles, CA--This obituary was provided by Guy Benhamou and Andy Concool, former long-time colleagues of Julie's.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Julie Moreno Franco after a long battle with cancer.
Julie started in the industry at Oroamerica in 1982 and worked her way up to to eventually become the Sales Manager of the Wholesale Division. Later she rejoined forces with Guy Benhamou (former owner of Oroamerica) at Charles Garnier and became Vice President of Sales.
Julie will be always remembered for her insatiable enthusiasm and great, warm personality. She always lit up a room wherever she went. Her smile was contagious and she always brought her A game.
She was known by almost everyone in the industry and will be sorely missed by everyone she touched.
May the four winds blow you safely home. Please celebrate Julie’s life with hugs and love for your family as she did.
