My deepest sympathies to June’s family. She was such a warm and caring person. She sent me cotton seeds from her brother’s farm once when I mentioned I wondered if I could grow it in California. A cotton boll is on my Christmas tree every year, which always makes me think of June and Arnold and makes me smile.

June was one of my Mother’s best friends for many, many years. She and Arnold were both so sweet and kind to my family. They were regular visitors in our home in happy times or sad times. Heaven is truly blessed as June’s journey has come full circle. My sympathy to Brenda, Kimberly and all of her family.

Our hearts are saddened with June's departure. However, we are uplifted by the wonderful life and relationship we shared. June often called Bren and I, her other children. We loved her and cherish our moments together.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of doing Ms.Nola's hair for many many years. She was such a sweet sweet lady.
