June Friede Tincher

To June's Family--I am so sorry to have heard the news of June's death. Although I haven't seen her in a long time, I have thought of her often and wondered how she was doing. In our younger years we worked together and had a close friendship. I am sending you peace and love from myself and my husband Jerry. We were both shocked and saddened by the news of her death. May the memories of this wonderful being comfort you in the days and weeks to come.##imported-begin##Mary Selto Larsen##imported-end##

To the Tincher family,
It broke our hearts to hear of JuneÂ’s untimely passing. My wife Vickie and I always looked forward to talking to June whenever we saw her working in her yard, or at the market. When I had the opportunity to chat with June she would always bring back such vivid memories of when I first met that cute little girl in the 8th grade at Mann Jr. High. I was always fond of June and always reserved a special spot for her in my heart. I had a crush on her from the first day I met her. She was my wifeÂ’s brideÂ’s maid at our wedding in 1972. She was with us during our engagement, and the first years of our marriage. I personally new many members of JuneÂ’s family, her dad Rex, who I would run into at the swap meet, younger sister Janet, and I had talked to some of the other sisters over the years. Whenever I had an opportunity, I would brag to friends about this really beautiful woman that I had known for many years, in that she would be the perfect companion, she was attractive, intelligent, and as a bonus she could design, engineer and build her own house. She was perfectÂ….What a lossÂ….Her passing has left a void in our hearts, and we will always remember her and keep the Tincher family in our thoughts and prayers.

I was deeply saddened to hear of June’s untimely passing. She was such a joy to all who knew her. We met while working in human resources for Tacoma, and quickly discovered that we attended the same junior and senior high schools, were both born in Germany, lived only blocks apart while growing up, and both had military fathers and German mothers. She was a joy to be around and always had a smile on her face. She frequently spoiled us with the treats she made and brought into the office. I finally convinced her to share her “secret” brownie recipe with me, although she swore me to secrecy. It is difficult to believe June has left us. She was a blessing to all who knew her, and we are each richer for having had June in our lives. My most heartfelt sympathy in your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.##imported-begin##Beverly O'Dea##imported-end##
