June Kittrell was born June 2, 1924, to Elmore Grant Hill and John Juliane Gatewood of Walnut Springs, Texas.

As a wife of an educator and coach, June and her late husband had several places to call home from Clarksville, Texas; Mansfield, Texas; to finally settling down with their family in Lake Worth, Texas.  They raised all three kids in the Lake Worth community.

In being involved with their kids in school, they also enjoyed taking the family water skiing on Lake Worth and Lake Ouachita in Arkansas, and snow skiing in New Mexico and Colorado.

Along with being long-time Texas residents, they also maintained a log cabin residency in Creede, Colorado for many years.  It was a home they built themselves along with the help from their son in law, Bill.  It was their passion that they shared with all their family and friends.

June was a very talented artist for many years.  Her paintings were admired by all.  She was a permanent fixture at the Heritage Hut with all her friends she came to love, know and respect.  She loved to crochet hats for the newborn babies at Cooks Children’s Medical Center.  She was a talented person with a giving heart.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Milford Lawrence Kittrell of 52 years, and great-grandson, Wyatt Lee Kittrell.
