June Wardlaw of Stella, MO, went to be with our Lord and Savior on Sunday morning December 2, 2012 in Neosho.
June started her life as the 8th child of Frank and Aretha "Evans" McCall on June 11, 1927 on a farm north of McCune, Kansas in Crawford County. In 1942 June and her family made the monumental event of moving the family farm to Minidoka County, Idaho from where June graduated from Rupert high school.
June was encouraged by a neighbor's wife, Ruth Van Every, to write letters to her younger brother who was serving overseas in WWII. That young man was Jack Wardlaw who upon returning from duty, June married in 1946. After marriage the couple moved back to McDonald County, where Jack was born and raised.

One special quilt she made has airplanes commemorating Charles Lindbergh's flight over the Atlantic which occurred the year she was born. June was also a member of the Pineville Christian Church.
