There is a huge sadness in my heart as I am thinking of words to express my love for June. My "Little Grandmother" or as I called her June, will be deeply missed. She has always been there for me and it's gonna feel really empty without her in my life. June, we love you and miss you and thank you for helping shape who I am today. Your "Little Grandson" Eric.

Back in my dating days, I spent many precious hours laughing with June and her sister Ann. She was one of the sweetest women ever, and looked just the same as she did then. I share in your sadness, Sammy and Jan Betty Hopper

Sammy & Sissy(Jan), I am so sorry for your loss but I know your mama is in a better place. I grew up next door to y'all and enjoy every minute of it. We moved away a long time ago but I visited with her a few years ago when I was in Eden for a class reunion. She looked great and I thoroughly enjoy our walk down memory lane. Love ya', Patsy
