Mother was a good trooper, never complaining, always “just fime” and as for needing anything, “not that I know of.” We miss her.
She always had refreshments available for hungry boys and I enjoyed her gracious hospitality and engaging personality…growing up at CUP Church, she and Earl were faithful attenders and inspired my ambitions to pursue the teaching ministry…I will always hold June and Earl in my heart and mind with gratitude and affection.
Praying God’s comfort to her family as they pray their goodbyes to her.

To June’s family: I worked with your Mom for a number of years — she was always a joy to be around, and had a smile that was unforgetable. May you find comfort in knowing that she’s safe in God’s arms.
Sincerely, Doreen
