I know this may be too late but for anyone who is interested, we have posted videos of Ogie’s necrological service on youtube.com. I’m not sure how to post links here but just search “Ogie Juliano” and the videos will come up.
Thank you all for remembering and celebrating my beloved brother’s life!

Thank you so much for featuring Sir Ogie. Friends called me the day he died and then I called sir Anton and he was already crying when he answered. I felt alone here in greece and not being there to say goodbye. He was a good teacher. We miss him.

Hi Louise. You’re welcome. It was the thought that there are lots of people like you who wanted to be there but couldn’t make it that made it imperative for me to do this post. Take care….

Thank you for expressing our loss of a beloved artist, cousin and friend through a medium he truly understands and appreciates, the theater arts. I can see him smiling happily down from Heaven with his mom, knowing fully well his life on Earth was truly worth the sacrifice he gave to see his dreams and those of his friends’ dreams come true. He is, by all honesty, our Ogie. Saluds to all of his friends who made us proud to have him as our cousin.
