June as she was known to her family and friends was retired from the Boone County Board of Education. She enjoyed many active years working in her flower gardens. She said “canning” was her favorite hobby, She believed in working to provide for yourself, your family and your neighbors in need.
If she didn’t answer her phone on the weekends it was because she was flea marketing. Her advice to all was always “be nice to one another”.
June would always say the best way to go to bed and end the day was “Talking to the Good Lord!”
