June Moore died peacefully and suddenly in the quiet of her home in Warren, MI on December 6, 2019. She and her twin sister Jean were born on June 1, 1929 to Albert and Ida Johns, joining their brother Billy and their Aunt Lily. She married the love of her life Charlie on October, 8 1960. Charlie thought she was the prettiest girl he had ever seen and his face lit up whenever she entered a room. He had many health problems and June cared for him tirelessly until his death in 1993. They had two girls, Lisa and Kelly, and June warned Charlie that he was going to ruin them with his silliness. Besides his sense of humor, Charlie also gave them a love of reading and June banished all books at the kitchen table so she could have conversations with her family. June kept a spotless house and Jean often said she was happiest with a rag and a bottle of Windex in her hands. June loved to shop and Saturdays often consisted of a trip to the mall with Jean and then watching the Grand Ole Opry while Charlie and the girls fled to other parts of the house. Unlike many women of her era, June worked outside of the home all her adult life and finished her career at Uni-Bond Brake, where she worked for eighteen years. She retired there three times, each time complete with a party, before she said enough was enough. She gained the second love of her life when Kelly and her husband Ty gave birth to Joshua in 2000. She proclaimed him perfect when she first saw him and her opinion never wavered as he grew up. June was hit hard when their brother Billy died in 1984 and she was devastated when her twin sister Jean passed away in 2011 at the age of 83. Her family was worried about her at the time but she had a resilience that kept her enjoying life. She moved into her sister’s condo and began regularly attending Trinity United Methodist Church in Roseville, joining Lisa and Joshua. She said she always felt better if she was able to go to service. COPD and congestive heart failure kept her at home more but she loved to sit in her garage on summer evenings and visit with her neighbors. She was determined to live in her home and she told everyone that she didn’t know what she would do without her two girls, who visited her nightly making sure she was happy. June loved shopping, country and southern gospel music, traveling, going to church, bowling, eating out, and reading the daily newspaper. She was always stylishly dressed, complete with jewelry and hair and nails done. She charmed people wherever she went and will be dearly missed by family and friends. Visitation will be Tuesday, December 10, 2019 from 2-8 p.m. and her funeral service will be Wednesday, December 11, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. at Trinity United Methodist Church, 18303 Common Road, Roseville, MI. Memorial contributions may be made to Trinity UMC.
