Peace Corps Mourns the Loss of Volunteer Julianne Amundson

WASHINGTON, D.C., August 31, 2011—Peace Corps Director Aaron S. Williams is saddened to announce the death of Peace Corps volunteer Julianne Amundson. Julianne, 69, was serving as an English teacher with the Peace Corps program in Jordan and died of natural causes in Stockton, Calif., on August 27. Julianne is survived by four sons.

"Julianne was an exceptional volunteer and a committed English teacher working to strengthen our friendship with the people of Jordan," said Director Williams. "On behalf of the entire Peace Corps community, our thoughts are with Julianne's family, friends, and fellow volunteers."

Julianne arrived in Jordan for Peace Corps training in October 2009 and was sworn in as a volunteer in December 2009. She served as an English teacher at Um Ar-Rasas Comprehensive Girls School in Jordan. At the school, she helped create a reading library with globes, maps, a computer, and other reference materials for teachers.

As a secondary Peace Corps project, she worked with her community to establish a resource center for local women to sell handicrafts at the Um Ar-Rasas Roman Mosaic site, which contains some of the largest historical mosaics in Jordan. Julianne was to complete her service in December 2011.

Prior to serving with the Peace Corps, Julianne worked for many years as a teacher in Stockton, Calif.
