Chuck,
I’m so sorry for you and your family’s loss in the passing of your mom. Anne Marie and I send our deepest sympathy and have you all in our thoughts and prayers. May you feel God’s peace, comfort and strength during this time and in the days ahead. A verse that gave me comfort in my mom’s passing comes from Psalm 16:11. Our moms are in a much better place.
“You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

As we all come to grips with the passing of precious June, we truly realize how fortunate we have been to have had her in our lives. A rare individual, who was a tremendous friend, and had the ability to beautify everything around her. From her creative talents, kind acts, or just simply being her beautiful, fun, and animal loving self, she will be so tremendously missed. Our hearts are broken, not only for you, but for ourselves as well. Please know that you are in our hearts, thoughts and prayers, and that you do not shoulder this lose alone. What a blessing she has been to all of us. Love you June…
Love you our sweet friends.
John 16:22
My mother and dad were friends with June’s Mother and Dad, Irene and Craig. I enjoyed visiting with Barbara and June with my mother. I was always envious of the fish pond they had in their backyard. June and Barbara went to Sand Hill, and I went to Candler in elementary school. It was good to have June in some of my classes at Enka. As life happens, our paths did not cross often after graduation, but it was always good to see her and reminisce old times together.
With my concern and sincerest sympathy to her family.
Anita Robinson Metcalf
Hey Carlos, was saddened to hear you lost your precious wife. We shall meet again my friend. May the rest of your journey be peaceful.
So many happy and fun childhood memories. Growing up on Starnes Cove. My best memory when we took our children to Enka and dropped them off for what seemed like the end of their childhood. Tears fell that day in Winn Dixie.
For all who loved and admired her, my sympathy goes out to all.
