She is survived by her children: Nancy (Steve) Nunham; Elaine (Randy) Eddy; Carol Nunham; and Robert (Jackie) Reese; brother-in-law Harold Cook; 11 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. June was a graduate of Okemos High School, co-founder of Reese Farms, worked at Sears, Oldsmobile, and retired from the Lansing School District. She was a life-long member of Faith Bible Church (formerly Inter-City Bible Church) and a special member of Calvary Baptist Church. June loved the Lord and asked God every day to take care of her. She was a Sunday school teacher, youth choir director, choir member, 4-H leader and sang in the Lansing Choral Society. June enjoyed music, especially Handel’s Messiah, and the laughter of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was sweet, kind, and good-natured to the end.
