Sweetest wife of the late Harry left this earth to be together again with her beloved husband, parents and 8 brothers and sisters. She is survived by her heartbroken children; Gerald, Jack, Diane (Robinson), James and Jeffrey; also survived by 17 grandchildren and 24 great grandchildren. June was well known for her energetic spirit, optimism and compassion. She saw it as her mission in life to point out the positive qualities in everyone she knew and even those she just met. Never without a smile and a compliment, she inspired her family to "always look out for the little guy," "remember that God loves you," and "be thankful for all that we have." She was a lifelong Christian whose faith in God and her fellow man was never shaken. June was a long time member of Ward Memorial Presbyterian Church. Born in Pennsylvania, she moved to Detroit as a young girl. She married Raymond Provencal with whom she had two sons, Gerald and Jack. In 1949 she met Harry Matheney at the "Alice Coffee Shop" which he owned and where she was employed. They fell deeply in love and married on New Years Day, 1950. They are together now once again.
