Mrs. June learned the importance of family looking out for one another at an early age.  Her mother taught her how to make white oak baskets and when her mother began losing her sight June left school to help her at home.  She would often drive family, friends, and neighbors to appointments or to do errands.  She met Donald when she was 12 years old.  He waited on her to be old enough to start dating and married her soon after.  They had recently celebrated 42 years of marriage.  Fun loving, plain spoken, and a loving wife, mother, and grandmother.  She often had a funny story or a piece of advice for her family and friends.  You would seldom see her without one or many of her family.  She would often help Donald on HVAC jobs he was working on.  She had a love of the Lord and the Bible.  She was baptized in the creek near Sunny Slope Church of Christ.  She and Donald were members at Victory In Jesus Church at Living Springs for nearly 30 years.
