Mayberry, June Lee SAN DIEGO -- June was born on July 22, 1938 to the late Lansing and Velma Burnett in San Diego where she grew up as the oldest of three. June was a successful career woman and at one time was the spokesperson for San Diego's largest employer, Pacific Telephone. She appreciated art and travel, was an avid reader, and frequently enjoyed music and dining with friends. But June was first and foremost the adored matriarch of her family, which was always her top pride and priority. A beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. June is remembered for her captivating story-telling, endless generosity, and graciously kind spirit. She passed at her home at the age of 75 and rejoined her late husband Robert and her parents Wednesday May 14, 2014, Velma Burnett's birthday. June is survived by her two daughters, Kristine Kirkendall and Kathleen Conner; her ten grandchildren; her brother, David Burnett and his family; and her sister Judith Wood and her family. No services are being planned.

I worked for June at Pacific Telephone in the 1960's in San Diego. She was a very gracious woman and a wonderful woman to work for.

June Mayberry was my Sister-in-Law, and her Mother Velma was my Mother-in-Law. They were both wonderful, loving and giving women. I lost my Mother when I was 16. When I married June's Brother, David, they made me feel like I was a very important part of their family. I lost my Husband Dave in 2017. I love and miss them all. They will live in my heart forever.

June was always a class act who exhibited much dignity and grace, even at the most difficult and trying times.

We loved getting to visit her in beautiful San Diego and she went out of her way to make us feel welcomed and loved. She was one in a million, and it's a great honor to be part of her family. We will miss her always but know she is smiling down on us all.

Rest now, June. You are so beloved — and greatly missed.

I met June over 30 years ago. I went to school with Kris and we made many road trips to San Diego during college. June really was an amazing example of a successful "working" woman who had fun and did what she wanted! She was inspiring! I continued to see her over the years and I always loved our visits! I know everyone will miss June. She was spunky with attitude and knew how to have a good time. I know her family and friends will miss her dearly...Love you June!!

It was with great sadness that I heard of June's passing. I was honored to know June by doing electrical work for her for several years. What a gracious, kind and classy lady she was. She will be missed. God Bless Her.

June was such an amazing sister. She showed us all how to rise above what life throws at us and carry on with dignity and a smile. I have many memories that will live on in my heart. I love you June.
Until we meet again...Judy

Aunt June was an amazing, strong woman. She truly loved ALL her friends and family. We will miss her but have comfort knowing she is in heaven (probably planning new dinner parties and celebrations). I have nothing but love and respect for this lady.

June was a wonderful person inside and out. The most generous person I know. She was my Sister-in-Law, and always treated me as her sister or best friend. I will always love her and miss her. God bless you June

I'm a friend of Kris'. Years ago I visited June when I was in San Diego for a conference. We hung out at her place, had dinner at a swanky local place and drove around to see the sights. We had a blast. She was such fun and a delightful evening companion.

May memories provide the love of family. June brought with her energy to light the room and the North Park PC store.
