June's liveliness and creativity were inspiring and heart-warming. I will cherish those joyful memories and share them with my children.
I will forever be thankful for June welcoming me to this country with open arms, and soon afterward, into her heart and family.
May you rest in peace, June, "somewhere over the rainbow... where trouble melts like lemon drops..."
