To me, June was the epitome of the Titus 2:3-5 older woman. She taught me so much of how to be a godly wife & mother. June was also my very good friend. And her laugh, smile, practicality, wisdom, and sense of humor — I will miss these things so much! I look forward to seeing her again when Jesus welcomes me home, too. What a great reunion we’ll have!! Love you, June!
