Growing up, June and her sisters known around town as the “3 J’s” because all three girls had names that started with the letter “J.

On July 26,1934, June married Orville Pyeatt in a beautiful outdoor wedding. After the ceremony, the town presented them with a traditional chivaree. “It was a good one!”June says with a giggle. Eventually June and Orville made their home in Halltown, Mo., where they owned and operated the Halltown Store. At the age of 94, June decided to pursue a career in modeling, which she continues to enjoy. June has one daughter, three grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
