June Kersey Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
June Bug married Howard Kersey Sr. on October 29, 1966 and they were blessed with Kim, Greg, Robert, and Joseph. She was not only a devoted homemaker but also the life of every gathering, a friend to all, and a beloved family member. Her love for music was evident in her enthusiasm for singing along with her favorite band, the "Whammies," while her competitive spirit shone through in her passion for bowling and trips to the casino. It was even said that she brought the joy of the casino to her nursing home, organizing monthly outings that became a cherished highlight for her and her newfound friends.
Her family will always remember her warmth, her unwavering support, and the countless memories she created over the years. June Bug leaves behind her beloved daughter, Kimberly (Ken) Bailey; her sons, Howard Jr. "Greg" Kersey, Robert (Julie) Kersey, and Joe (Nickie) Kersey; her cherished grandchildren, Dylan (Samantha), Tyler (Jessica), Joey, and ShyAnne; and great-grandchild Lavender, with another one on the way. She is also survived by her dear brothers, William and Lawrence Borgman, along with many nieces and nephews who adored her.
June was preceded in death by her husband, Howard Sr. Kersey, her daughter-in-law Terri Kersey, Parents: Harry A. and Mary (nee Young) Borgman and siblings: Carol Modafari, Linda Blevins, Rita Hodge, Audrey Humphrey, Marilyn Smith, and Richard Borgman, who now joyfully reunite with her.
