Julian Aragon

Julian Petie Lee Aragon, son of Ramon Francisco (Frank) and Mary Paula (Navarette) Aragon, born on July 20th, 1959 at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Yakima, passed away March 18th, 2022. After leaving Yakima with the family in 1966, graduating from Cleveland High School in Seattle, and serving in the Army as an MP, Julian returned to the Yakima area as a proud veteran. Julian was always there to help not only his fellow veterans, but community members he saw in need. Especially going to the various food banks and helping take food to those he could help. He enjoyed watching movies, dancing whenever the opportunity came up, and being the first to get you out to explore the city. His favorite pastime was spending time with family and friends. He is survived by his mother, Mary (Paula), daughters Christina, Jazmyn and Veronica, sons Craig and Roderick, brother Ramon, sisters Patsy and Maria, and grandchildren Kamil, Makenzie, Elijah and Isaiah. His laughter and smile will be forever missed by all who got to enjoy him. Services to be held: Rosary 5:00 PM Thursday, June 23rd, 2022 at Valley Hills Funeral Home, 2600 Business Ln., Yakima, WA 98901; Mass 2:00 PM Friday, June 24th, 2022 at St. Paul Cathedral, 15 S. 12th Ave., Yakima, WA 98902, with reception to follow.
