June and Wayne served two missions for the church in England and Salt Lake City Utah. She loved music and encouraged her children and grandchildren to develop their talents. She enjoyed hearing her family share their accomplishments.
Family meant everything to her and she was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. June loved having her family around her and never seemed to tire of it. She was an excellent cook and had the ability to make a delicious meal at a moments notice. She made the best chocolate cake, cinnamon buns, cookies and pies. She lived a life of love and service to her family, friends and church. June’s legacy and the way she delivered it with such pure, selfless devotion will live on in our hearts forever. She enriched, inspired and influenced every part of our lives and for that we are ever so grateful.
