Mike and Family, Our condolences on the loss of this truly remarkable woman. Her picture reveals her great beauty. June was one of a kind - gentle of spirit and kind-hearted, with a blessed and beautiful attitude toward the gift of life. We’re lucky to have had her as friend and neighbor and will miss her very much. We are so very sorry.
Dear Michael and Family, we were so sorry to learn about June’s illness and passing. June always was a special part of Lucca Family gatherings with her big smile, infectious laugh, and positivity. We always looked forward to catching up with her and only wish there were more get togethers! We also had a lot in common since all 3 of us worked for International Harvester and it was fun trading IH stories. As we mourn June’s passing, we are very thankful she lived and that we could be part of her life. Out thoughts and prayers are with you always.
