My thoughts and prayers are with June's family and many friends and colleagues. While I am saddened to hear of her passing, I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to work with June through the Sonoma County Legal Secretaries Association. Her youthful enthusiasm in everything she did will stand as a fine example for us all. Thank you, June, for your friendship. I will cherish it always.

June was a very nice person and had so much ENERGY. She was well-known by the legal community and liked by everyone who knew her. She will be missed. Rest in peace, June. You've earned it!
