June was the loving wife of Thomas Davis, whom she married on July 21, 1975, in Little Rock, Arkansas. Together, they shared over five decades of a beautiful marriage marked by laughter, a radiant smile, and a dedication to family. June and Thomas raised eight wonderful children, and their home was a vibrant gathering place filled with love, joy, and the delicious scent of freshly baked cookies. A devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, June's family was her greatest pride. She is survived by her loving husband Thomas, their eight children, 20 grandchildren, and 16 great-grandchildren. Her nurturing spirit and unwavering love will continue to guide her family for generations to come. June was predeceased by her parents, Jack and Sarah Jones, and her siblings, Jerry and Mary Jones. While their loss was deeply felt, June carried their memories with her throughout her life, honoring them with her kindness and generosity. Professionally, June served as a nurse in the VA department, dedicating her early years to the care and service of others. She retired early, a decision that allowed her to dedicate herself fully to her family and community.

Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she found great joy in her role within the church community. June's hobbies and interests reflected her nurturing nature. She loved to bake and cook, and her kitchen was always a place of comfort and delight for her family and friends.
