June fought a long hard battle with Adult Hydrocephalus and Alzheimer’s. The last years were very difficult for June. June succumbed to her illness at AgeCare Seton in Calgary, Alberta.

June had four children Colleen, Debbie, Scott and Mark.  June worked at Canada Post where she was employed for 35 plus years and retired at the age of 62. June was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion and spent many hours playing shuffleboard with her dear friends.  Her most loved moments were those in which she spent with family and friends.   June enjoyed travelling, reading, bingo and the outdoors.
