Julia Isaac (4-30-11)
Julia Harris Isaac, a Georgia native and longtime Alaska resident, died Saturday, April 30, 2011, at her home in Douglas, Alaska.
An Alaskan pioneer who never lost her Southern sensibilities (or accent), Julia was the third of six children born to Robert and Claudia Harris on December 14, 1919, in rural Winder. Her parents and brothers Dana, Hugh, and Robert Harris predeceased her.
Julia graduated from Winder High School in 1937 and attended the University of Georgia. She was a reporter for the Walton Tribune in Monroe until age 22, when she enlisted with the Women’s Army Corps, joining three of her brothers serving overseas.
A decorated World War II veteran and Bronze Star recipient, Staff Sergeant Harris served in the South Pacific Theater until her discharge in 1945. Following that, a thirst for adventure and cooler climates took her to Fairbanks, Alaska, where she enrolled under the GI Bill at the University of Alaska to study Russian. There she met her future husband, Robert (Bob) Isaac, a fellow veteran. They were married May 25, 1949, in Fairbanks, Alaska.
In 1952, the couple made Douglas their home, and Julia worked for the Territorial Legislature. After the birth of their two children, Julia returned to work as a secretary for several state agencies and the local school district before retiring in 1976.
In Alaska, Julia was a member of nearly 60 years in the Douglas Community United Methodist Church. Throughout the years she was also active in many local organizations including Douglas Island Women’s Club, Toastmistresses, Civil Air Patrol, and Pioneers of Alaska.
After retirement, Julia and Bob spent many months out of each year at the home they built in Winder, where they were members of the Winder First United Methodist Church. Julia had also been an active member of the Winder Woman’s Club, and participated in local civic activities including Winder’s Veterans Day ceremonies. During summer months back in Alaska, Julia and Bob operated the Windsock Inn Bed and Breakfast out of their Douglas home for 15 years.
In the 1970s, Julia (“JJ the Clown”) and several friends formed the Juneau Joeys/Clowns for Christ, a charitable clowning organization dedicated to spreading cheer and goodwill throughout the community.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by her children, Robert (Sue) Isaac of Oviedo, Fla. and Amy (John) Miller, of Douglas and Madison, Conn.; grandchildren, Sarah and Robert Isaac, and Robin Miller; brother and sister-in-law, Claude and Harriet Harris, Bethlehem; and sister and brother-in-law, Martha Sue and George Breedlove, Winder; and many nieces and nephews.
A memorial service took place May 5, 2011 in Douglas, Alaska.

Lerlie Segars Carruth (5-24-11)
Lerlie Segars Carruth was born on September 18, 1914, in the same year that Barrow became a Georgia county. Her parents were Grady and Cleo Segars, the only girl born in a family of six boys: Glenn, Bill, Joe, Julian (Fat), Jack, and Johnny, who died in infancy. The family were pioneer settlers of the area and all the siblings were involved in agriculture and independent businesses. One of the brothers, Glenn, served as Assistant Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Agriculture during the 1960s and his wife, Anne, was Barrow County’s first female Commission Chairman.
Miss Lerlie loved her family deeply and always included her maiden name in her signature. During the Depression years she worked long days in the cotton fields with her brothers. “During hard times we all did the best we could,” she said. “We weren’t aware of being deprived of anything, and were content. The farm, our family, and our home was our life. We loved each other, and everything seemed fine.”
She is survived by eight nieces and nephews and their spouses: Joyce Segars Davis (Benson), John Darrin Segars, Deneen Segars Kinney (Brian), and Ricky Segars of Winder, Judy Segars Robinson (Steve) of Soddy Daisy, Tenn., Billie Segars Carroll (Benny) of Watkinsville, Gail Segars Rainey (Mike) of Eatonton, and Hank Segars (Marie) of Madison. She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Shirley Segars, and a number of great-nieces and nephews.
Miss Lerlie graduated in 1932 from Statham High School where she excelled in home economics and on the basketball court. Thereafter, she worked on the family farm and later began dating James Carruth. James and her brother, Glenn, were members of the first FFA chapter chartered in Georgia, at Statham. She married her husband in 1935 and two years later, they bought their first farm. In time, the couple added two adjacent farms on Finch Road to raise cotton and corn; and, for 25 years, they were also in the dairy business.
In 1941, their first and only child, Jane, arrived. As an honor student, master 4-H member and gifted musician, she enrolled at the St. Louis Institute of Music to study piano. There, she excelled and became an honor graduate and president of the student body. In 1966, Jane – along with her baby – tragically died due to complications during childbirth. Her mother said, “Jane was our pride and joy. Not only was she an accomplished pianist and teacher, she could do anything.”
In the 1970s after her husband died, Miss Lerlie began to travel extensively and worked as a travel escort accompanying groups to all 50 states and each province of Canada. “I enjoyed every bit of it and every place I went,” she said, “but, it was always good to come back home.” She also served as the guardian of her nephew, Tim, whose father had died when he was young. This nephew lived with her for a number of years and they continued to farm until his death in 2009.
Miss Lerlie was known for her peacocks and beautiful gardens. However, it was her cheerful disposition, humble character, and warm smile that is so well remembered by the community. Her authentic Southern charm was most evident as she offered visitors a piece of cake, a glass of iced tea, and a plant from her yard.
For many years she taught Sunday School in the Old Pentecost and New Pentecost United Methodist Churches, and later, held membership in Hope Baptist Church. Her devout faith has served as an inspiration to many. “The most special thing in my life is knowing Jesus Christ,” she said. Lerlie Segars Carruth’s long history of quiet sacrifice and unselfish living, her positive attitude and caring heart, continue to influence all those fortunate enough to have come in contact during her lifetime.
Funeral services will be held Friday, May 27, at 4 p.m. in Smith Memory Chapel with the Rev. Steve Roberson officiating. Visitation will be one hour before the service. Burial will be in the Segars Family Cemetery.
Smith Funeral Home, Winder, is in charge of arrangements.
