June 24th, 1935 – July 1st, 2026

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, June Shirley Patricia, who passed away peacefully on July 1st, 2026, at the age of 91.

Born in India on June 24th, 1935, June spent her early years there before moving to Plymouth, England, at the age of 13. She later trained as a nurse and specialized in midwifery in London, where her compassion, skill, and dedication helped countless mothers and babies throughout a distinguished career spanning more than 40 years.

In 1958, June married the love of her life, James. Together they shared 61 wonderful years of marriage, raising their two daughters, Jayne and Jacqueline. In 1967, the family immigrated to Canada, settling in Oakville, where June continued her nursing career, first in Emergency and later returning to her passion for maternity care.

June was also known for her wonderful cooking and baking. Family gatherings were made special by her shepherd’s pies, curries, sausage rolls, roast potatoes, apricot squares, banana bread, and homemade apple pie.

Above all, June treasured her family. She will be lovingly remembered by her daughters Jayne and Jacqueline; sons-in-law Patrick and Mel; grandchildren Gillian, Allison, Emily, and Danielle; great-grandchildren Declan, Kyleigh, and Tanner; and her brother Raymond. She was predeceased by her beloved husband, James.

The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate staff at Amica Dundas, where June happily resided for six years, and to the exceptional nurses and caregivers at Regina Gardens in Hamilton, whose kindness, dedication, and loving care brought her comfort and dignity in her final months.

A visitation will take place at Turner Family Funeral Home, 53 Main Street, Dundas, on Friday, July 10th, 2026, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, July 11th, 2026, at 1:00 p.m., with a reception to follow.

Forever in our hearts.
