June M. Lawrence

June M. Lawrence passed away on Wednesday, July 9 at the age of 95. June grew up in Kingston NY, she met her husband Vince on a blind date in 1950. On that date he managed to slam her finger in his car door but it was his "lucky break" because they married 6 months later. They began their lives together when Vince was beginning a career at Allied Chemical, which brought them to Syracuse and they would eventually settle in Camillus, NY.

June had an amazing singing voice and was in various singing groups. She also wrote and directed several shows for The Camillus Elks Lodge and other organizations. For many years she sang The National Anthem at the Camillus Memorial Day Parade. She sang with Vince in the church choir at Immanuel Methodist Church where she also created beautiful floral arrangements for the church altar.

June and Vince loved their yearly travels to Wrightsville Beach NC and Ormond Beach Fl.
