Golda June Neff

June was a wonderful woman that was loved, is missed, and will always be cherished. Our “Nana,” as she liked to be called by her grandchildren, was a selfless, kind, strong woman with a tremendous will to live.

June’s life story began on July 29, 1936, as one of seven children born to Walter “W.R.” and Bertha (Mickler) Hager in Stamford, TX. She was a cheerleader and a 1954 graduate of Paint Creek High School.

As a young lady June worked at the Stamford American Newspaper. She later pursued a career in the retail business, working at C.R. Anthony’s and Montgomery Wards. She loved working in the retail business and helping her customers select the perfect outfits with her keen eye for fashion.

She was a strong matriarch of her family, a good friend to all, a woman who would give her shirt for a friend. June was a loving and devoted mother who cared for her children and did the best she could to teach and guide them.

June was renowned for her cooking and baking skills, but could manage the family farm, while being a loving caregiver to her parents.
