I was saddened to learn of the passing of June. She was such a dear lady. I spent so many times with Jim and June, and many of my Missouri cousins while visiting my grandmother Minnie Crow. May her soul be eternal.

I am sorry to hear of Aunt June’s passing. She was always so sweet. Her and Uncle Jimmy were so close – I am glad they are together again.
So sorry to hear of June’s passing… I hope you all find peace knowing Jim and “his bride” are together again..
Deepest sympathies to the family of June Steen.
