Dear Colleagues,
It is with profound sadness that we write to tell you that June passed away peacefully last night. As you all know, June has been very ill over these past months. She struggled with her usual sheer determination and will, in spite of her pain and weakness. Her determination is an inspiration to us all.
The funeral arrangements are as follows:
11:00 AM Thursday, July 31st
Congregation Beth Hatikvah 36
Chatham RoadSummit, NJ
The cemetery is at Beth Israel in Woodbridge, NJ
Shiva will take place at the home of June's sister, Linda Thailer
June's family asks that donations be made to Hadassah for the JuneWalker Education Center at Meir Shefaya.
May her memory be a blessing and may June's family, and all who loved June be comforted among the mourners of Zion.

We are deeply and sincerely saddened by news of June's death and comforted only by knowing that she was doing what she cared about until the very, very end of her life and that she left us peacefully.
June was dedicated to the people, places and things she loved with uncompromising honesty, astuteness and compassion. Her commitment to her family and the families of people she had never met, in the States and in Israel was unwavering. Even during those times when she became weaker and frail, she continued to act on behalf of what and who she loved with enthusiasm and dignity.
We expected nothing less of her and her legacy to us is to expect nothing less from ourselves.
With great sadness and great love we send you our sympathy.
On behalf of all of the Shfeyah family,
