In the second half of her nursing career, June worked in the greater northwest Washington, D.C. area. While in the nation's capital, June immersed herself in its rich culture, visiting museums and historical landmarks, and volunteering.

After retiring, June and Bill settled in Palm Desert, CA, where she embraced an active and fulfilling lifestyle. She enjoyed golfing, needlepoint, playing Bridge, club activities, and volunteering. A devoted member of the Palm Desert Community Presbyterian Church, June found joy in serving her community. She cherished family vacations at the beach and shared her love of sports with her children, cheering enthusiastically for the schools attended by her children and grandchildren and the home teams from the places June lived.

June is preceded in death by her husband, William, and her daughter, Nancy Foulk (Robert). She is survived by her loving children, David (Kimberly) and grandchildren, Michael, Katelyn, and Joshua; and John (Kimberly Graham).
