May 26, 1949 - January 27, 2024
It is with heavy hearts we announce the sudden passing of June M. Arseneault, age 74, peacefully at Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre, with loving family by her side on January 27th, 2024 to be reunited with the love of her life, Bob.
Born in Springhill on May 26th, 1949, she was the daughter of the late Gladys (Maddison) and Harry Rushton. June and Bob left Springhill at an early age and moved to LaSalle, Quebec, where they both worked very hard to support their family, before moving back home to Springhill in 1977.
Once back home, June stayed home raising her three children. When the children were older June went to work in 1988 at All Saints Springhill Hospital, where she made many friends including her special friend, Gail.
For many years June was a part of the Springhill Fireman’s Ladies Auxiliary. Aside from working and volunteering, June enjoyed her weekly card games of Five Crowns with Pat and Lou, her daily drives with Bob, their spontaneous road trips, with one of her favourite trips being the drive to Florida with Ron and Margaret. Most of all June loved spending time with her family. Her family was the centre of her world!
June is survived by her son, Rob (Diane), Calgary; daughters, Elizabeth (Pat), Bible Hill; and Nicole (John), Springhill; grandchildren, Katelyn, Bobby, Connie (Aekam), and Megan (Connor); and her great-grandson, or as she would say, Nannie Gerts special little boy, Beau Robert; sisters and brothers-in-law, Bernice, Harold, Jack (Diane), Ron (Margaret) and Ginny; and many nieces and nephews.
June was predeceased by her husband and soul mate of more than 54 years, Bob Arseneault; sisters, Jean (Gray) and Carol; and brothers, Joe and Harry.
Arrangements are in the care of MacDiarmid's Funeral Home & Crematorium. As per June’s wishes, cremation has taken place and a graveside service will take place at a later date.
“Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day”
