After retirement, she and her husband moved to Bisbee and have lived here 30 years.
June was an active member of the Bisbee Cancer Support Group and an avid Cubs fan.
She always wore her Cubs T-shirt on game day, and was optimistic that “maybe next year” they’d win the pennant.
She leaves behind her loving husband, Arnold Peterson; her son, Tom Schelling, and his partner, Isidro Chavez; her daughter, Caryl Larkins, all of Bisbee, Ariz.; stepsons, Larry (Helen) Peterson of El Cajon, Calif.; Donald (Sue Ying) Peterson of Pioneer, Calif., and stepdaughter, Karrin Schenone of Bedford, Texas. Also two grandchildren, Erik (Jaime) Peterson of Vallejo, Calif., and Danielle Padillo of Fort Worth, Texas. June has one great-granddaughter, Makena Peterson of Vallejo, Calif.
In lieu of flowers, it is June’s request that everyone spend more time with family.
A memorial service will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 6, 2008, at Trinity Methodist Church, 214 Arizona St., in Warren.
