  • Julie Barnes A Caring Individual

    I find Peggy  Lipton's character, Julie Barnes to be someone I could confide in  in times of the worst personal crises I could be going through, be it the aftermath of a serious traffic accident I was involved in  (which actually happened i 1997) to the death of a step sister from a heroin… More oversose,which also actually happened  as well. Julie Barnes would be  the first one  I would  turn toin times of personal crisis.It is not to  knock Linc or Pete, but that some things certainly  work out better if the lady's touch is involved. I  would be more than  honored to have a chance to meet Peggy  Lipton and tell  all of this right to  her  directly.
