93rd year in the Richmond Villa, St.

was an active and faithful member of the United Church. June was a
remarkably strong woman who always had a smile and loved to play a
good joke on friends and family, especially on her favourite holiday
of Halloween. Her door was always open for a cup of tea or a good game
of cards, and she cherished all of the good times at the Brule Beach
cottage. She was loved by all who had the good fortune to meet
her.
June was pre-deceased by her husband, Cyril
«Sid»; daughter, Susan Payne; son-in-law, David
Payne; daughter-in-law, Liz MacIntosh; her four sisters: Fan McCabe,
