June Whitefield Hunter

July 19, 1925 — August 21, 2015

June Whitefield Hunter was born in Corsicana, Texas in 1925 and was a graduate of Corsicana High School. After receiving a B.A. in Music from Baylor University, June enjoyed life as a homemaker, music instructor and performing pianist. June had a strong faith in Jesus Christ and was a vital member of her church. As a worldwide traveler, she found great delight in the outdoors. June particularly enjoyed the beauty of colorful flowers both in nature and in her own backyard. The beauty of nature kept June's heart close to her Creator. She was acutely aware of even the smallest details of God's gift of creation. Family and friends called June "elegant" and "kind." She was gracious and loving and possessed the heart of a servant. She often prepared meals for those in need and was renowned as a baker of cream pies; particularly coconut cream. She won numerous contests with these amazing pies. Music exuded from June's heart and life. As a gifted and talented pianist, she was well known for her skills at the keyboard. For more than 20 years, she played to the delight of audiences at the Christian Care Center in Mesquite, Texas. She played local talent shows and at family gatherings. Her talent for exceeded the size of audiences and venues she played. Again, this was a testimony to her giving heart. June didn't need large audiences or public acclaim to be an accomplished performer. The "ears of God" would have been audience enough, but she loved bringing joy to others through her music. June is beloved by her family, church community and friends. She left this life with the same grace, beauty and dignity with which she lived. She was a wonderful role model as a mother, Christ-follower, giver and lover of all. June will be greatly missed and will live forever in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
