Julia M Pusecker

Julia Martha Morgan Pusecker, May 5, 1935 – October 26, 2026

Julia lived her 91 years with love, light, challenges, and adventure. A lifelong learner, she graduated from Columbus West High School in 1953, Capital University in 1955, and The Ohio State University in 1978 and she could often be found with a book in her hand. She shared 64 years with her beloved husband Bill. The love they radiated provides a catalyst to light the candles shining happiness throughout the lives of their six children and eight grandchildren that is not diminished by their passing. The majority of their years were spent in the house they built on Bright Road in Dublin, OH, enjoying gardening, cooking, and spending time with family and friends. Julia spent many hours listening, loving, parenting and grand-parenting. Julia and Bill shared a love of travel and camping, exemplified by a year-long trip visiting many national and state parks throughout the United States.

Raised in Miami Avenue Presbyterian Church and Hoge Memorial Presbyterian Church, Julia was later a long-time member and volunteer at Dublin Community Church. She and Bill enjoyed and were inspired in their later years by the virtual services provided by First Community Church.

After raising her children, Julia was employed as an accounting manager at several companies including Compuserv, WorldCom, and MCI WorldCom. She faced life’s challenges with her signature wisdom, resilience, grace, courage, moxie and tenacity.

Julia was predeceased by her parents, E Stanley and Martha Bibler Morgan, husband William Pusecker, sister Margaret Bartholomew, daughter-in-law Suzanne Pusecker, her father and mother-in-law, Joseph and Wanda Pusecker, niece Sally Chesser, sister-in-law Marion Mobley, and brothers-in-law Richard Pusecker and Ashley Leppink. She leaves to treasure her memory sisters Marietta Leppink and Suzanne Morgan, children Michael Pusecker, Debra Peters (Mitch), Kenneth Pusecker (Susan Closson), Beth Pusecker (Gregg Hoffman), Pattie Pusecker (Jeff Hlad) and Caroline Lind (Mark) along with her grandchildren Bryan and Morgan (Trevor Britton) Peters, Rachel and John Hoffman, Colton, Tucker (Kayla Pio), Emily and Logan Hlad, sister-in-law Shirley Chesser, and a host of nieces and nephews, treasured grand-dogs and grand-cats, extended family and friends.

The family would like to thank the dedicated staff at Cotter House Worthington for their loving care in Julia’s final days. Memorial donations can be directed to Habitat for Humanity, First Community Church, or the organization of your choosing.

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, November 14th at 1pm, First Community Church North, 3777 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH.
