It was such a pleasure to work with June in her service to the Ferst Center for the Arts Board at Georgia Tech. Her passion for excellence and wonderful spirit will always be remembered.

We cannot adequately find words to express our feelings of sadness on hearing of June's passing. June was such a loving and kind person with the sweetest personality. Every time we saw her, her beautiful smile would light up any room. Our heart goes out to John and family. We will miss June dearly and her goodness will never be forgotten.

June and my mother, Gwen Ford, were dear friends since high school at Decatur High. Gwen is in a memory care unit and June would call me for years to check on how mom was. Our family has very fond memories of June and the many grand parties they had at their lovely home. Our condolences to John and the entire family.

John, Brenda and I were big fans of June. She was wonderful to be around and a great addition to the Tech Family. Jean said she was excited about the Virginia Win, I bet she had the Saints rockin' and rollin' in the heavenly stands today, and maybe even gave us a little help with the interception. She will be missed by all who knew her, not to mention yourself. However I'm sure your many wonderful memories are of some comfort.
We thank you for your friendship these many years, and are thinking of you at this time. Brenda and Charlie
