Julie McTigue Trant, age 63 and resident of Concord, MA passed away peacefully on Monday, November 21, 2022, following a courageous battle with cancer. She was the devoted and loving wife of 39 years to James E. Trant.

In November 1983, she married Jim Trant in New Jersey, they soon relocated to their much-loved Concord, Massachusetts. Julie had a long, successful, and respected career in Human Resources from which she retired in 2019.
Julie and Jim enjoyed travel and rooting for their favorite sports teams, often combining the two. They travelled to Maui three times to attend the NCAA Basketball tournament and celebrate their anniversary. They also enjoyed attending Red Sox Spring Training in Fort Meyers, FL.
Most of all, Julie enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and her beloved dogs, Henley and Emma.
