To all of the Corum family, we were so sorry to hear about Junie yet excited that once again the parents are all together. So many happy times to remember and with those our loved ones live on forever in our hearts. I still have my first cabbage patch doll that she got us started on she lays above my bed and watches over me. We wish you all the strength in the world and know your extended family is always here for you.

All our Love Barbara Jean and the Garcia family

To Deb, Dave, and Kathleen,

I am so sorry when I got the news of our "Ju-Ju's" passing. What a wonderful person she was. Our famileis were such good friends forever. My mom loved June like a sister. I have so many fond memories of her. Her laugh, her sense of humor, her love for garage sales and her sincere love for all of us. Some of my earliest memories of her were going to garage sales with my mom and Ju-Ju. They taught me at a wee age how to spell the word sterling and 14k. I would go to the sales with my hands in my pockets and search without touching to find those words on things for them. She always said "Don't make to much of a fuss, just come and get me or your mom and we will take it from there. It was all so much fun on those early Sat. mornings. If Mom and Ju-Ju saw a garage sale sign and Mom was driving, Ju-Ju would have the car door open with her foot dragging across the ground as though she was the brakes on the car. I laugh now as I recall this. There are so many wonderful memories I have of her, and all the Hillsdale bunch. I am sure they are all gathered around the old "Model A" with beers in hand, saying welcome we've all been waiting. To me it makes it less sad knowing they are all together again. Bill and Mike also send there love. Ju-Ju will truly be missed.

Love,

Deb, Dave, and Kathleen, my sincere condolences and prayers go out to you and your families at this time. Your mom was a mom to all of us. I keep a picture on my desk of her, Maryilyn, and my mom together during a visit to Tucson. I will always remember her laugh, her sarcastic remarks to help lighten up a mood, her die hard support for her As, her weekly visits to the beauty parlor, her fondness for antiques and how she became an expert in her passion for them, and that she was a great friend to my mom and dad most of all their lives. I will mostly remember and cherish her for the love she had for your dad and the desire for all of you to find happiness and have the best that life could offer. She was a great lady and will always be remembered as one. Those of us whose lives she touched were blessed to have known and loved her. She is probably in heaven finding the most beautiful treasures of all...those who have gone before her and were waiting for her. She is at peace and happy in the arms of her soulmate Lee-boy. Love you all. Leenie Whalen

Words fail me (I do not have Sally's gift). Junie was such a great person. She kept her sense of humor through all her trials. I remember all the barbques we had and her always laughing. I don't know how many times she told me about my mom parading me around the neighborhood and how sick she got of it, and then she would laugh that great laugh. She was one of my mom's best friends and I will always love her for the support she showed all of us Walsh kids. Thanks for the memories Junie!

Deb, Dave and Kath, I was so sorry to hear about your mom. She was like a mom to all of us through the years. But feel comfort in knowing that she is now with the love of her life and all her friends who have gone before her and I am sure they are having one heck of a party. I have so many wonderful memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life. It is never easy when you lose your last parent but try to find comfort and strength from one another. Take care and God bless you all.

I have so many wonderful memories of Junie. She was outspoken and funny as all get out. I loved to watch her and LeRoy dance when the parents all got together in our living room on Friday nights - so long ago. She was defintely a huge influence in the village (or the *block*) that raised me! Just think of the party that has been waiting for her over on the other side!!! Much Aloha to you Deb, David and Kath. Remember the good times.
