June came into this world on May 26,1922 with a sunny disposition and a zest for life; which she kept with her until her passing 98 years later. Born in Arizona, an only child, to William and Vivian Ussher. June spent most of her life in southern California, and her last 11 years living with her daughter Diane and son-in-law Bill in Kentucky.
June was survived by her daughter, Carolyn & husband George, her son, Jack & wife Eileen, her daughter Diane & husband Bill, step son, Steve & wife Sue, and step daughter Susan & husband Lance. Survived by 11 beloved grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. June was preceded by the love of her life, John Ruthven.
Known for her wit and sense of humor and ability to look on the bright side she made things fun for those around her and lifted many people's spirits. She was a social person and many a stranger became a friend.
She came from a rich heritage and had the courage to make the best of every situation in life. June was daring and adventurous, loved life and lived it to the fullest. She loved to travel. She had many hobbies. She was witty, creative, practical, thoughtful and appreciative. June loved the outdoors and the ocean. Athletic as she was; she loved to swim and water ski. But her greatest love may well have been orange juice!
June had a tender heart and a generous soul and lived a long blessed life. She had many friends and June will be greatly missed by family and friends and remembered with smiles and laughter and memories of good times shared.
Good-bye June as you are off on a new adventure... we love you.
