Til W.th tn (Mil JULIUS SHEMIN Nashville, TN Julius Shemin was born on April 30, 1929 in New York City to Doris and Albert Shemin (deceased), who were great parents.

His brother, Saul (deceased) was his only sibling. His first 20 years were spent in The Bronx, NY. He graduated from New York University at the age of 20. Upon completing his Korean War service in the U.S. Army Finance Corps, he got his first and only "real" job with Fruit of the Loom Corporation, a job he loved for the next 40 years.

He started as a sales trainee in New York with a subsequent sales position stops in Little Rock, AR (8 years) and Memphis, TN (18 years) where he became a Regional Sales Manager before relocating to Nashville in 1979 as his career culminated with the title of Executive Vice-President of Sales working in the corporate headquarters in Bowling Green, KY. He was married to Lillian for 58 years and his 3 children, Randy (Kim), Robert and Rochelle (Scott) Isaacs and grandchildren, Doran and Alexander were all joys in his lifetime as were his nieces, nephews and their children. He served on the Board of Trustees of Synagogue Agudath Achim in Little Rock and Beth Sholom Synagogue in Memphis. After retirement, he was a substitute teacher in Metro Nashville Public Schools system, was elected to Junior Achievement Hall of Fame and was an active member of SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives) mentoring entrepreneurs and initiating various seminars and motivational group sessions. In conclusion, he led a full, good and rewarding life and asked that his appreciation be extended to all family, friends and associates who helped him achieve his life's goals.

This is especially true for his dear friends known collectively as The Bagel Boys, who for the past many years have enjoyed the camaraderie at their weekly luncheons, some of whom he will be honored to have serve as pallbearers. The family wishes to thank Dr. Steve Abram, St. Thomas Hospital West and Medical Group, Alive Hospice, A Grandmother's Wish, the Rudy and Sarah Cannon Cancer Centers, Life-Links Geriatric Care Management and all of the doctors, nurses, and caregivers for their kindness, compassion and for doing what they do so well.
