Julie Iris Daugherty, 60, of Owensboro, formerly of Falmouth, passed away on Friday, August 18, 2017, at the Owensboro Health Regional Hospital. Born in Ft. Thomas, KY on December 22, 1956, she was a daughter of the late Harold B. “Pete” and Colette Crotty Daugherty. Through Julie's life she participated in programs of all types to provide skills that would help her as she had cerebral palsy. She participated in programs at Redwood in the Dorothy Wood days in Latonia. Then there were programs in Falmouth Middle School and in Harrison County. So many wonderful people made these programs possible. Years later, Julie needed a place of her own. She was fortunate to become a resident at the Wendell Foster Campus in Owensboro, KY, where she lived for 26 years. She is survived by her brother, Dennis (Susan) Daugherty of Cold Spring, KY; three sisters: Monica (David) Dunlap of Taylor Mill, KY, Maureen (John) Rauch of Edgewood, KY, and Katie (Pete) Caccavari of Cincinnati, OH; 6 nieces and nephews; 5 great nieces and nephews; and a host of extended family and friends.
