I admittedly didn’t know her name before today, but I always enjoyed her “old woman” roles, Pinako being my favorite. RIP

Rest in peace, Juli. One of my favorite roles of hers was Tsuru and Kokoro in One Piece.
Also, I discovered that Grant James's name is misspelled as "James Grant" and that error might need to be fixed. Thanks.

Can't believe we've lost another great Funimation VA so soon after Julie Mayfield... RIP Juli Erickson.

She was always a joy to hear in her roles. I had feared the worst when she was replaced as Recovery Girl in MHA, but if I remember she had moved from Texas at the time. I hope she enjoyed her voice acting retirement until the end.

FMA is my ultimate favorite anime. Granny Pinako was such a warm, wonderful character who really felt real. My own grandmother just passed away as well. May the spirit of Christmas lead everyone to peace this year. RIP

Unless I've missed it somewhere,
I think the thread should add and highlight the fact she voiced the English dub of these shows,
I know it should be obvious enough from the VA name and pic (thought it was some drawn/AI portrait at first and was confused till I've read things up),
Some people who aren't checking things further could very well think the original JP VA died from the title alone.

at least unlike some of these you read about ... born in late 1939, she lived a long fulfilling life (and even had one last birthday a few weeks ago)

Even though she retired from voice acting for a few years now it is still so sad. Other roles she did was Amazon from One Piece's Skypiea Arc, Recovery Girl from My Hero Academia, and Ooba Babasaama from Fairy Tail (which for the latter two she was replaced upon her retirement).
