Giuliano “Julian” Liotine, aged 87, an honorably discharged U. S. Army Veteran, began his journey as a teenager immigrating to the US from Italy. After serving in the military, he earned his US citizenship. During a visit back to Italy with his father, he met Flora, the love of his life, whom he married in a whirlwind romance that lasted 58 years. Together they raised three children, creating a life full of love and cherished memories.

Julian's legacy includes his successful business ventures, worldwide travels, and the lasting impact he left on those who will dearly miss him. He will be fondly remembered as the loving father of Joanna M. Liotine Leafblad, Rita Johnson, and Giulio Liotine, and the cherished grandfather of Veronica, Josie, Trinity, Cecilia, Mark, Sofia, and Anthony. He was the proud son of Giuseppe and Giovanna Maria Liotine and dear brother of John Liotine.

Visitation will be held on Sunday from 2-8 p.m., with the funeral scheduled for Monday at Robert J. Sheehy & Sons Funeral Home, followed by Mass at St. Elizabeth Seton Church. Interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital are appreciated.

Julian will be lovingly remembered by his family, friends, and the many lives he touched throughout his remarkable lifetime.
