| Julie Kelly Historical Researcher & New Investigator in training |
| Julie Kelley I live in Eastgate, Ohio in a four-bedroom home in suburbia. Divorced, I have my 18 year old daughter Renee living at home with me while she attends UC. Somehow, I seem to have ended up with more animals than people in my house. I have a rescued poodle (Timmy), a Chihuahua (Lenny) and a 13-year-old cat (Sassy) that run the place. I travel a couple of times a year, but being a creature of habit, it is always to the same locations, leaving the major trips to my daughter who suffers from extreme wanderlust. I am addicted to sweet tea and chocolate, love Pilates and Tivo is my second best friend. Nothing worse than sitting through commercials with Live TV. I became interested in the paranormal when I was a little girl, living in a house that seemed to have a spirit there that played with us girls all the time. Once we moved, we never saw her again, but the interest it sparked in me lingered. I have since had numerous unexplained events, but nothing ever as clear as the little girl we called Debbie growing up. I enjoy the fact that I can use my love for the unknown and my love for information and combine it with a group of people that do not look at me like I am crazy when I mention otherworldly ideas. I have only been a member of SOAR for a short time, but have already learned a lot and hope to continue to grow as an investigator and as a researcher. |
