In loving memory of June Lewis who sadly passed away on 25th February 2018

June Gwendoline Jones was born on the 27th June 1935 at The Elms, Trelleck Cross, Trelleck, in Monmouthshire and was one of four children. Ken her eldest brother, then mum, followed by Raymond and then Rhos. the four siblings enjoyed their childhood growing up in the Forest of Dean - although they did have quite a walk to attend their respective schools in those days - 2 miles there and back each day to be precise!

When mum left Monmouth Secondary School, she worked at a local dentist surgery in Monmouth, Timms & Palmer where she worked until she met and married dear Dad.

Mum & Dad married on the 14th July 1956 when mum was 21 years old (a stipulation made by her father). As Dad was in the Navy at that time, they moved down to Plymouth where they subsequently had Stephen who was born on the 25th November 1958. When Dad left the Navy he joined the Metropolitan Police Force and they then moved to Highbury New Park in London, as dad was stationed in Islington. On the 23rd June 1960 along came Julie who was actually born in the flat where they lived.

Mum & Dad shared 56 years of happily married life together - a feat in itself! Sadly, soon after Dad passed away on the 17th October 2012, mum was diagnosed with vascular dementia and it has been a long hard 5 and a half years watching her decline - but one saving grace is that they are now reunited - together at last with her 'lovely' as she would always call him 💙💝 - God Bless you both xXx

Dear Steve and Julie, although I had not seen your mum for many years, I still fondly remember her as the lovely, welcoming lady who always enjoyed a good laugh with all your motley crew of friends. I will be thinking of you and your families on the day and will raise a glass in her memory.

One of my favorite Cousin will be sadly missed by me.
I spent many days with June as a child playing in and around Cleddon area with her brothers and sister.
I have a lot of fond memories of June from those days.
Rest in Peace June.
All my Love Bill.

Thinking of you and Steve at this difficult time, June was a special person to many people and I have such fond memories of her because she was special to me. She was the Rock of the family without doubt and sadly missed by all that new her. I hope you can take some comfort from the good times we all had with her and your Dad. I still smile to myself when I think of your Mum and Dad, happy times, your Mum not letting your Dad rest up for a minute, always had something that had to be done. And your Dad muttering “ Christ June” under he’s breath, but all in jest. They will be singing “The Old Rugged Cross” together again Julie,
Thinking of you,
Love Martin
