Julie Ann Pinizzotto, 66, passed away peacefully on March 20, 2026, in Santa Barbara. She was born on Nov. 6, 1959 in Montebello, California.
Julie is survived by her loving parents Mary and David; sisters Sharon (Steve) and Diane; brother Dave (Carolyn); five nephews and three nieces; and 13 great-nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved dearly.
She was preceded in death by her beloved dog Bella, and is fondly remembered alongside her loyal companion Henry.
Julie’s faith in Jesus Christ was at the center of her life. She loved sharing God’s word and living her faith through kindness, warmth, and compassion for others. She had a creative and gentle spirit.
Julie enjoyed sketching and creating glass art, and she found real joy in tending her garden and caring for her houseplants.
She loved being outdoors-walking on the beach, listening to the ocean, and taking in the beauty of hillsides covered in wildflowers.
More than anything, Julie was happiest when she was with her family. She had a way of making everyone feel welcome and loved. She brought a smile to every room she entered, and her laughter was truly infectious.
Julie will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.
A funeral mass will be held at 11 a.m. April 7 at the Old Mission Santa Barbara.
Funeral arrangements entrusted to Pueblo Del Rey Funeral Services.
