Remembering Julie Pipe

Julie Dawn Pipe (Brummel) was taken in the hands of her Savior, Jesus Christ, to her heavenly home on Friday, October 30, 2026, at the age of 51. She was welcomed into glory by the saints of all ages including her beloved mother, Mary Brummel, and her dear father-in-law, Timothy Pipe Sr. She is survived by her loving husband, Timothy Pipe Jr, to whom she was married for 31  years. She is also survived by her five children, Alycia and David Kuiper, Olivia and Brice VanOverloop, Ella and Dylan Meulenberg, Chloe, Aidan; 6 beloved grandchildren, Benjamin and Calvin Kuiper, Leo and Baker VanOverloop, Paisley and Cooper Meulenberg; father, Andrew Brummel; mother-in-law, Lois Pipe; sisters, Shelley and Bob Cammenga, Kristi and Joel Engelsma; brother, Mike and Tricia Brummel; brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Bill and Erika Atwood, Scott and Jill Riemersma, Tyler and Michelle Pipe, Michael and Lindsay Kerkstra, Jordan and Anna Mae Pipe; and many dear nieces and nephews. Julie was a life-long member of the Protestant Reformed Churches, serving in Mother’s Club and other committees for the churches and schools that she held so dear. Julie lived her life knowing that she was saved by the grace of her Savior Jesus Christ. Especially in the final 11 months of her pilgrim journey, her faith was strengthened in the knowledge of God’s goodness and faithfulness. Relatives and friends may visit with the family on Wednesday, November 4 from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at Grace Protestant Reformed Church.
