My condolences to Greg and Cindy. My heart was broken when I learned of June's passing, she was not only my next door neighbor, but also my friend. We would help each other out with the little things, I would help her take out the garbage and change a light bulb, she would be my eyes and ears of my house while I was gone to work, she would also keep my dog company from time to time. I liked her straight forwardness, June told it like it was. I miss you Mrs. Roddy, my neighbor, my friend. - Posted by: Ken (Neighbor) on: Apr 21, 2014
