Julie Ann Lackman was born on December 19, 1943, in San Antonio, TX, to parents Bernard and Esther (Kolbaum) Lackman. Their family moved to Kiron shortly after her birth, and she lived in the Kiron area most of her life. She attended all of her schooling in Kiron and graduated with the Kiron High School class of 1962.
She was married to Dennis Blunk on January 16, 1962, until his passing on May 27, 1975. This union was blessed with four children: Michael, Mark, Michelle, and Merrit. She was later remarried to and divorced from Eddie Kluver. She was baptized into the Catholic faith, and then became a member of the Lutheran faith after marriage.
