June was married to my mother's cousin Henry. I met June late in her life; she was gracious and kind and smart, a lovely woman. I wish I'd met her sooner.

I met this extraordinary women through my friendship with her cousin, Jason Barabba. As fascinated as I was by the life she led, she was equally interested in mine. Her ability to make people feel special was a part of her own charm. She was, and always will be, simply grand.
