It was a privilege to know you, June. I will remember you always as we got to know one another when you stayed with us for Becky and Lanes wedding, and later at the wonderful weekend of Nell and Bobs baptism. God love and keep you.

June was one of our great volunteers at the hospital. She volunteered many years. She was a delight. My sympathy to your family.

What a lovely lady! I worked at Methodist and had many conversations with June. She was always upbeat and smiling. Prayers for all.
