Julia was born on September 18, 1955, in Montreal, Canada. She received her bachelor’s degree from Concordia University, and went on to build a vibrant career as a residential real estate broker. The ultimate entrepreneur, Julia started her own business in Ottawa, the Real Estate Book, where it soon thrived. When she relocated to Orlando, she fought through the bureaucratic red tape to start her own real estate brokerage company, Options Realty. Julia’s reputation in the real estate industry, where she worked for more than twenty years, was exemplary. She mentored the people who worked for her, inspired those who hoped to follow in her footsteps, and served her clients as a consummate professional.
Julia was diagnosed with breast cancer in the fall of 2014. For the past two years, she fiercely and courageously battled cancer, while simultaneously running her successful business. Unwilling to cede any ground to cancer, Julia had the best period of her professional career last month.
Julia Lynn Parsons-Kalser passed away on Thursday, September 1, 2016. Julia is survived by her husband, David Kalser, her son, Jamie Parsons, and Pumpkin, the best puppy in the world.
Memorial contributions may be made in her name to charities working to prevent and cure breast cancer. Please follow the link: https://www.nationalbreastcancer.org/breast-cancer-donations

I miss you mom!
because every morning I wake up, I know I am here because of you. For every sunrise for the rest of my life, I will be grateful for your guidance and encouragement. For every sunset I will know I made it through the day because you carried me. I needed and wanted many more days with you but what you left me with, will forever resonate. Every single day I'm fortunate to open my eyes, I thank you for blessing me with you. I will forever love you my sweet Julia today and everyday I'm able to take in air. You've given me confidence, you've given me courage, and you gave me something that could never be replaced, your love. Everyday I thank you and I hope you can hear me ... when I look up and speak, asking you to stand behind me, asking you to guide me as ive been so used to for the past 4 years of my life. You were God sent and though I'm an athieist, I know it had to be something omnipotent to send you into my life. I miss you terribly Julia, with every yearning piece of my heart. No matter how many days pass this feeling will never grow old. I miss you Julia Kalser, today, tomorrow and for the rest of my days. I know this will stand true until my last. You have made an imprint on this meager life that nothing in all its glory could possibly fill. Forever empty in a place only you could fill. I love, love, love, love , love you my sweet Julia.
I find myself talking to my new angel, several times a day, already asking for help here and there. Julia would, if at all possible, look out for all of us, the people she loved.
Thinking of you David, on one of many sad days that you have had since August 28th, when the nightmare began. Know that you are not alone in your grief, because many of us loved Julia too and are feeling a gap in our souls as well. But you were Julia's soulmate and you must be missing her terribly. Our hearts are with you.
Take good care, David and we will be in touch soon.
Mary & Mickey Bailey
Love, Cheryl & Steve
Just when her years seemed the best
She was called from this world of wonder
To a home of Eternal Rest
Fond memories of the times we shared will keep us together.
