I remember so many Christmas trees that June and Matt shared as well as those she "made" when she lived alone. Artists should be allowed to have forests in their living rooms. Of course, Matt, had a great deal to do with that- a tree wouldn't be a tree unless it was trying to poke a hole through the ceiling. June loved to insist it was his doing but they were both mad elves. She "made" so many angels and cut out decorations for so many of us. Trifles with Japanese cherry wine, Christmas lights that she loved but feared for her safety with.I exchanged a few words with her grand-daughter today and I remember how much she loved her family. They are wonderful people but how could they not be after having spent so much time with her.I miss you June and you were the Queen. - Posted by: Kathryn Ross (friend) on: Dec 09, 2012
