My sincere condolences to June’s children who I remember from our Chrystal Beach days. I have never met such a brave independent person like June. I know she will be missed.

Rest in Peace <3 To June's family, may you find peace and comfort in your memories! She loved you all, very much, and shared many memories of her own.
