BUTTON, June

-

— Peacefully on March 4, 2012 in her 94th year. Loving wife of Dr. John Button for 69 years; mother of Jocelyn, Barbara and Janet; mother-in-law of the late Michael Paul, Dr. Daniel Dolden and Willard L’heureux; adoring grandmothe­r of Jenny (Grant), Amy (Gary), Tim (Gaia), Teo, Will, Chasen, Josie (Sam) and Robert; greatgrand­mother of Emily, Tommy, Luke, Ilaria, Grace, June and John; dear sister of Anna Clark. June was an involved citizen and a leader in Stouffvill­e: Chairman of the Board of Education, Civic Councillor and award-winning gardener were but a few of her accomplish­ments. She was a guiding light and model to her grandchild­ren who worshipped her for her strong sense of justice and forthright personalit­y. She influenced those around her with her value system based on common sense, hard work and loyalty. June loved life: skiing in Switzerlan­d, travelling the world, Halls Lake, dinner parties, Majolica pottery, antiques and digging in her garden. A woman for all seasons!
