About 12:30 a.m. this morning, my mother-in-law, June, passed away. Thankfully, it was a peaceful crossing from this world to the next for her. She was under home-hospice care, and we all knew it was time for her to go.
She’d lived an eventful, productive life for 94 years., and was a classy, talented lady I respected greatly. She was kind and caring, and still stood tall for the things she believed in.
I wanted to include this photograph of her posing on the back of a fire truck in Grandville, Michigan:
If you’d like to read more of my opinion of her, you can read my post from November of 2012: June.
I’m getting all misty-eyed, so I’d better close this up.
Goodbye, June. I will never forget you.

Our Aunt June was such a wonderful lady. So kind, talented, funny, sweet — the best little sister to our Mom, Marian Paynter. We will miss her so much. Imagining a sweet, wonderful reunion in Heaven with the “Good” girls.
