Julie B. (Coffin) White

AUBURN – Julie B. (Coffin) White, 53, passed away on Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2024, at the Andwell Hospice House in Auburn, after surrendering to her nine-year battle with colon cancer.

Julie was born in Biddeford, on June 13, 1971, to Ronald A. Coffin of Standish and Charlotte M. Collins of Dixfield. Julie’s young life began in Bar Mills, with her older sister, Audrey. She later moved to Dixfield and attended Dixfield schools through graduation in 1989. Later she attended Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) and graduated as an X-ray Technician. Over the years she was employed by St. Mary’s, Central Maine Medical Center and Maine Medical Center, where she worked in the heart unit. She was grateful for the many friends and staff in the hospitals where she worked. They were truly so nice to her and became more than friends.

Julie was married to John J. Coyne of Auburn for a few years and was blessed with her dear son, Jack J. Coyne, who grew up with his older sister Jasmine M. (Clarke) Marquis. Jazz was so very dear to her and gave many hours of looking after her and helping in so many ways. Julie and Russell White (of Rumford) were together for eight years and were happily married for three. Russ took exceptional care of her during the last few years of her life and truly loved her so much.
