Born on June 16, 1930, in Egg Harbor, June Delores Hasenjager was the daughter of Orville and Amanda (née Bley) Hasenjager. As the second oldest of nine siblings, she grew up with a strong sense of family and responsibility on the family farm. She graduated from Sevastopol High School in 1948 and soon after, on April 29, 1950, she married the love of her life, Clyde W. Kreutter, Jr. Their marriage endured with love until Clyde's passing in 2018.
June had a true gift for baking-her legendary cookies, along with her lovingly made pecan rolls, pies, Texas sheet cake, and cherry coconut bars brought comfort and joy to all who were fortunate enough to enjoy them. A member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Ixonia, she also found happiness in canning, gardening, and cherishing time with her grandchildren. She and her family created lasting memories at their beloved getaway on Brekke Lake near Amherst.
June is survived by her children, Beverly (Bill) Klein of Columbus and Clyde W. (Tara Berera) Kreutter III of Concord; son-in-law, Paul Fendt of Watertown; grandchildren, Alan Fendt, Nicholas (Kraig Kelsey) Fendt, Joseph (Briana) Fendt, Chuck (Jed Burk) Klein, and Christine (Keith) Campbell; five great-grandchildren, Olivia, Maci, Joe, and Nora Fendt, and Marley Campbell; brothers, Donald Hasenjager, Glenn (Penny Olson) Hasenjager, Leon (Rosemary) Hasenjager, and Clyde (Linda) Hasenjager; sisters, Elaine (Donald) Neinas and Linda Moore; as well as nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.
Preceding June in death were her husband and parents; daughter, Diane Fendt; son in infancy, Keith Kreutter; brother, Allen (Audrey) Hasenjager; and sister, Audrey (Elton) Neinas; along with sisters-in-law, Barbara Hasenjager and Anita Hasenjager; and brother-in-law Kerry Moore.
