Celebrate Jules Frauenhofer's Life with a Garden

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Jules Frauenhofer, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, who left us far too soon. Jules was a bright and compassionate soul whose warmth and laughter left a lasting impact on everyone she met.

In lieu of flowers, we invite you to honor Jules’ memory through a donation to this memorial fund, which will help bring a deeply personal remembrance to life — a tribute in the Old Fourth Ward Community Garden in Atlanta.

Jules was a passionate gardener. Her home was filled with lovingly nurtured plants that reflected her vibrant spirit and love of nature. To honor this legacy, we will be transplanting some of her favorite plants into a permanent garden space near her son’s home, where her children can care for them and find comfort in their continued growth. It will be a place to remember Jules, to reflect, and to feel her presence in the beauty she so deeply cherished.

Any additional funds will go toward dedicating a book in her name to the Atlanta Botanical Garden’s library, and planting trees in her memory, so her spirit can continue to bloom throughout the city she called home.

Jules lived a life full of love, curiosity, and generosity. We thank you for any support you can provide in helping us create a lasting tribute to her memory. Jules’ spirit will continue to live on in our hearts, the stories we share, and now, thanks to you, in this garden.

In every bloom, her love lives on—toujours en fleur, just like her spirit.
