June Maureen Pickford (17 Jun 1932 - 20 Oct 2024)

Sending you all our love and sympathy and hope you can find some comfort in these words from us both.

IF WE COULD TURN BACK THE CLOCK
AND HOLD BACK THE TIME
IF WE COULD STOP THE RAIN FROM FALLING
AND TELL THE MOON NOT TO SHINE
IF THE SUN DIDN’T WARM US WITH ITS POWERFUL LIGHT
AND THE STARS DIDN’T TWINKLE
IN THE DARK SKY AT NIGHT.
IF THE AUTUMN LEAVES STOPPED FALLING
TURNING GOLDEN AND RED
AND ICICLES STOPPED FREEZING
TURNING TO WATER, INSTEAD.

I AM STILL HERE
IN THE AIR THAT YOU BREATHE
IN THE WARMTH OF THE WIND
AND THE KISS OF THE BREEZE.
I AM STILL HERE
WHEN THE COLD WIND BLOWS
WHEN THE RAIN POURS DOWN
AND THE COLD WINTER SNOWS.
I AM THE SUN, THE MOON AND THE STARS IN THE SKY
THEY GO ON FOREVER
THEY DO NOT DIE


Thinking of you all x

So sorry to hear of June's passing such a lovely lady always a smile and chat. Used to love joining the band on concerts and events, happy days. Her boys were always her joy. Thinking of you all..

What a wonderful woman you were, June. With your twinkly eyes and your infectious smile. I remember you, not only as mum to your boys who were similar ages to my brothers - Ian and Tim but also as a band “groupee”. For many years you followed the band and would be on the “bus” with us when we travelled around the country to contests and concerts. You really put a smile on people’s faces and will be missed by many. Sleep tight.

Dearest June you were beautiful inside and out, never looked your age whatsoever. So with it!! I had the pleasure of doing your hair for your 90th. You absolutely adored your boys and all your family! I enjoyed listening about your holidays and your hairdressing. You were so much fun with that beautiful sparkle in your eyes. As well absolutely adoring your family you loved Sarah lots. We both had so many similarities in are love for people and listening and supporting them and most importantly we both did our jobs to make people feel. Good and look good. I was honoured to of spent time with you in my chair. RIP you beautiful angel 👼 say hello to mum and Pat for me xxxx

Memories of June and her family when they lived on Baydon. She would buy eggs from my parents hens. Can see her now pushing the pram with her children. She was special. Love to the family.
