June Marie Dittmar

June Marie Dittmar, 90, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on January 6, 2026. She was born August 18, 1935 to William and Lila (West) Brudi at home on the farm. She was baptized on October 13, 1935 at Christ Lutheran Church where she was a life-long member. She graduated from Stockton High School in 1953. She married Dalvin Duane Dittmar on May 30th, 1954. The next day Dalvin returned to duty in the Army where he was stationed in Okinawa, Japan. She then worked at Micro Switch in Freeport. After returning from the Army, they rented and later bought a farm on Stees Road where the family is still operating. June lived in her home near the farm where she frequently commented that she was very blessed to have her family so close.

June adored her family, especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren and spent many hours caring for them while the parents were busy farming. She was a true farm wife and loved to know what was happening. She will be fondly remembered mowing the lawns, riding in her Gator, sewing and quilting beautiful blankets for family and friends and donating them to the church. She was active playing Rummikub, weekly breakfasts, church functions and hosting the annual cousin's luncheon.
