June, you were an inspiration to so many of us through the years. I so enjoyed being part of the lives of Leonard and June. One always knew where U stood with this lady and friendship meant so much to her. I did enjoy sitting with June and discussing the Winnfield days of her youth. A life that is shedding humor, joy, her views and inspiration to her family and friends in Heaven now. Thanks for ALL you did in your life on earth. You shall always be remembered FONDLY and I shall ALWAYS smile as I think of you and the memories we shared through the years. linda talbert, New Orleans
