We are very sorry to read of June's passing. We just learned of it today. We were at a funeral in Fredericksburg at the time of June's funeral. We lived across the street as neighbors for about twelve years. We have enjoyed knowing the Niedert family for many years. Sincerely, Pauline and Jim Harding
