A great memory I have of Aunt June is traveling to Knoxville TN with her, my mom, and Cheryl for the Worlds Fair. We had some great laughs in Gatlinburg TN while going down the Alpine slides at Ober Gatlinburg. Was a great trip! Karen Starkey Ogle
Patti, Nelson and family, Remember that we love and care about you.
June loved making applesauce with Stacey and my daughter, Emily. Emily said it was the BEST she ever tasted!! June was kind to her and so passionate about writing editorials for the newspaper. I loved June's vigor!! Rest in peace and enjoy heaven, dear sister!!
Patty, your mom was such a dear lady – such a good friend to my mom – a wonderful Godly woman. My prayers are with you and your family. Penny Mascorella Cunningham
Patty, Dale and I were very saddened to read of the passing of your mother. June was Vee's (Dale's mother) forever best friend. They shared a deep and committed love of the Lord. Thinking of their heavenly reunion and June's welcome into the presence of the Lord brings us joy. God bless you and your family.
