I HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT AND LOVE FOR JUNE’S FRIENDSHIP AND WONDERFULL CONVERSATIONS OVER THE YEARS, SHE WAS A VERY SWEET, GRACIOUS, AND LOVING PERSON. I ALWAYS LOVED THE SOUND OF HER LAUGH AND HER SENSE OF HUMOR. SHE IS NOW AT PEACE, WELCOMED HOME BY THE LORD.
I am so sad to hear the news of Aunt June’s passing. I spoke to Aunt June this past summer – via phone and so enjoyed our conversation. She will be sadly missed by all.
We want to express our sympathy to the family at this difficult time with the loss of their mother. God bless. Ken’s family
Sue & Family of June,
I’m so sorry I didn’t make it to your Mother’s Funeral. (Some circumstances at work didn’t allow me to get there on time) I really wanted to be there to pay my respects to you and your Mother. I really liked your mom; I have good memories of sitting in the kitchen with you and your mom and visiting and also remember her riding her bike around. My mom also thought a lot of your mom and would like to visit with her. I hope you find comfort that she is at peace now. It isn’t easy losing your mother, I still miss my mother, but the memories you have will help you.
I hope I will see you sometime soon. You and your mom are in my prayers.
Take Care. Nancy Johnson (Updike) please email me if you get a chance.
