Julian Dale Hart

Julian D. Hart, of Roanoke, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Nov 22, 2020 after a long, courageous battle with cancer. He was born in Marion, VA on Oct 14, 1933. Julian was preceded in death by his parents, Marvin R. Hart and Jessie Norris Bridges, and 2 older brothers. He is survived by his loving wife of 63 years, Shelby Fisher Hart, 3 sons, Wendell D. Hart, Steven W. Hart, and Stacy E. Hart; grandchildren Adam D. Hart, Joshua T. Hart, Jacob Hart, Mathew E. Hart, Brittany Hart; and great-grandchildren Amy Hart, Obadiah Hart, and Elijah Hart.

Julian attended Bob Jones Univ., became a Sergeant in the US Marines serving in active combat in Korea, and later graduated from VPI with a degree in Dairy Science.

He was a contract salesman traveling the NW and SE U.S. for more than 40 years. After raising 3 sons in Montana, he returned to VA in 1989 to eventually retire and devote full-time to his love of gardening.
