MACKIN After a long illness, on February 27, 2012, Julia Mackin has gone to share her artistic talents with all the other wonderful artists who came before her. Her family is sure she is once more celebrating the joy of creating those beautiful art works for which she was known. Julia was born on September 5, 1922 in New York City to Fred and Genevieve LaCagnina. She was the second of three children, having two brothers Leonard and Richard. Julia married Bernard J. Mackin in 1942 in Maryland on their way to Washington D.C. to reunite with some of her family. Julia was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Bernard J. Mackin. She is survived by her daughter Patti Richter and son-in-law, Otto Richter Jr., her brother Richard LaCagnina and wife, her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and numerous nephews and nieces who loved her very much. Services Visitation will be from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM on Thursday, March 1, 2012 at Mission Park Funeral Chapels North with the Vigil/Rosary at 7:00 PM. The Mass of the Resurrection will be celebrated at 2:00 PM on Friday, March 2, 2012 at The Church of The Holy Spirit Catholic Church.
