She was a designer and Illustrator for the Roth Theater chain before becoming a commercial illustrator and Art Director for John Martin Studios in New York City. June later became intrigued with sculpture as a means of artistic expression. Her signature pieces were whimsical and expressive painted terra cotta sculptures. Her works were exhibited in many juried and invitational shows in the DC area and included in many private collections. June loved playing golf in her Early Birdies Golf Club at Falls Road GC. She volunteered for the American Lung Association and was an active member of the Luxmanor Garden Club and the National League of American Pen Women. June was a devoted wife and mother. She was a passionate fan and spectator of all her grandchildren's activities: theater, dance and sports. She loved her Redskins and Nationals and always preferred to have a "ball game" on the TV. A private interment will take place at Parklawn Memorial Park. Please view and sign online family guestbook at www.pumphreyfuneralhome.com
