URBANA - June Evelyn (Martin) Llewellyn, 92, of Canton, Ga., formerly of Urbana, went to be with her Lord and savior, Jesus Christ, on Wednesday (Oct. 25, 2023) at The Landings at Canton Hills, Canton, Ga.
June was born on April 5, 1931, in Franklin, Pa. She was the eldest of four daughters born to the late Edward Herman Martin and Mildred (Rice) Martin.
June was a member and consummate pastor's wife of the Free Methodist Church, where she was involved in nearly every aspect of church service, including the choir, teaching and Godly consultant to her late husband, the Rev. Dr. Charles "Bud" Llewellyn. When her children were of school age, June returned to school at the University of Illinois to earn her bachelor's and master's degrees. She subsequently taught third grade at Prairie School in Urbana for 26 years. June is remembered fondly by those whose lives she touched both in the classroom and in church.
In addition to her parents, June was preceded in death by her husband, the Rev. Dr. Charles "Bud" Llewellyn Jr.; grandson, Charles "Chase" Llewellyn IV; two siblings, Joyce Perry and Janice Martin; and five sisters-in-law, Charlotte Jackson, Virginia Jones, Mary Francis Snedeker, Dorothy Van Dyke and Cora Wohnhas.
June is survived by three children, Robin Snider and husband Darrell of Waleska, Ga., Dr. Charles Llewellyn III and wife Denaze of Virginia Beach and Darren Llewellyn and wife Karen of Island Lake; nine grandchildren; and 18 great-grandchildren. June's sister, Yvonne Atkinson of Waterford, Pa., also survives. Most important to June, was that the generations that followed her were all raised in the church, where they love and serve the Lord.
A private graveside service will be held at Brooke Cemetery, Wellsburg, W.Va., under the direction and care of Chambers Funeral Home, Wellsburg (304)737-3551. Please add or view condolences, photos and stories at chambersandjames.com.

I remember Mrs. Llewellyn as the best teacher at Prairie school. She taught two of my girls and they loved her.If only we had teachers like her now. She was a person that lives in the memories of the past. May the memories your family share now can bring you peace at this time. May peace be with you all today and always.

I remember when your parent were in Armstrong. They were truly wonderful people. Mrs. L would keep tabs on me @ school. She would always give my Gram a glowing report on me from the week. Such a wonderful lady, full of love, grace & hope! God bless you all!
