It is with much sadness that we hear of June’s passing, I am glad that we saw her in July and I think she remembered at that time all of her classmates visiting. RIP, June.

Rachelle LaGree says
My deepest condolensces to all of June’s family and close friends. Mom told me of her passing and she told me of memories of my dad, David LaGree, shared with her when they were in school. After seeing her picture here, I was immediately brought back to ball parks, gymnasiums and every other event where she was there supporting her children and the community. May the love and fond memories comfort you today and in the days ahead. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Peace be with you all at this time.

June was a good friend I enjoyed her and will miss her. My prayers are with her family.
Hazel Walter says
I remember June as a special lady who cared for those who were in need. She was one of those who came together to start our local food bank the Samaritans Pantry. A number of different churches were involved. June took leadership handling the finances until she moved away. The Pantry is still going after 28 years. I loved her spirit! She is now at peace with her maker the Lord Jesus Christ. May your family be comforted and upheld in your loss.

Time and distance may have kept many of us apart . But the memories and the meeting of old classmates and friends will forever be close to and in our hearts. So glad we were able to share a few moments again. My thoughts and prayers to her family.

To Pat, Wayne, Kathy, Mary Anne and Sheila,
I have such fond memories of your Mom. She was a wonderful friend to our family and a close confident of mine as I was growing up. I’m so glad that I got the chance to visit with her last summer when I was in Forsyth. I took her shopping and then back to Dad’s house for lunch with Dad, Susan, Paul and Mary Catherine. It was great reminiscing. Her feisty spirit will be greatly missed. My prayers to you all.

Will miss June. I was able to visit and go to lunch August of 2011. Visited with June during county fair July 2012. Both times I enjoyed seeing her and lunching with her. An exceptionally good person to me and I will always remember her wit and humor. My condolences to family and friends sincerely Maurice.

I am sorry to read this. I didn’t realize she was so ill.
I still have the Strong’s Concordance I bought at her Bible Book Store she had there in Forsyth. She was a wonderful woman.
Donna (McAllister) Deisher says
Earl, so sorry to learn your sister passed away. I met her in Miles City – of course you were the topic of our conversation. She was so nice, I know she will be missed. My thoughts and prayer are with you. Take care of yourself!!

Marie says
I am so sorry for your loss of June. My heart goes out to all of you. May you find comfort and hope in God’s promise of a resurrection we will have similar to that of Lazarus at John 11. He wants us to be able to see and enjoy the company of our loved ones again in a healthy condition (Isaiah 33:28) for countless generations of time. He promises a time very soon where no family will ever have to mourn the death of a loved ever again. Revelation 21:4. May God himself grant you great peace and comfort now during this grievous time.
