They married on January 11, 1956 and enjoyed 64 years of marriage. June gave her heart to Jesus when she was 11 years old and was a devoted member of Salesville Baptist Church from that moment on. June held many positions in the church including pianist, choir director, secretary, and Sunday School teacher. After retiring, she continued to serve as assistant pianist. June came from a musical family and had a true passion for music. She could play any composition by simply hearing it played once. She wrote several religious songs, including “This Old World”.  June loved her Lord, family, church family, her many friends and neighbors, and any animal that crossed her path.
