CNA & RMT How long have you worked at PVHCF? 22 Years What is your favor- ite thing about Parkview? My residents! What is your favorite thing to do when you are not at work? I love spending time with my family. We enjoy going to the lake and relaxing at home. I have two girls and two boys ranging from 8-19 years old. My first grandbaby is due in July! June Rymes was born June 28, 1925, in Ana- heim, California to Bernice and Frank Mont- gomery. Frank worked at Standard Oil Com- pany, while Bernice stayed home and raised June. June’s parents were also singers in high demand. When June was ten years old, she lost her father. She and her mother grew ex- tremely close. June was raised in Anaheim and Pasadena, and was out of school a lot due to medical illnesses. However, the ever resilient June graduated high school at age 16 and quickly went on to secretary school at Pasadena Junior College. June started working as a secretary at age 18. She worked with the Navy Enlistment Board during World War II. After the war, June moved to Long Beach, found a church in the area to attend, and grew close to a woman named Marguerite, the organist at the church. One day while June was sitting in the church, a young man named Ivan Rymes came into the church to pick up his mother, Marguerite. Ivan saw June and he believed it was love at first sight, but June was more hesitant. After a sweet and romantic courtship June and Ivan were married on July 8, 1949. June had written a poem that Ivan put to music, which was sung at their wedding. Together, Ivan and June had three children Suzi, Martin, and Stan, as well as eight grandchildren, and 10 great-grandchildren. Through the years, as Ivan pas- tored, the family moved to interesting places in America, as well as a summer in Scotland. June spoke at and organized regional conferences. Through the years, June enjoyed opportunities to travel to the Soviet Union, Is- rael, Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji. She also enjoyed reading, gardening and music. June came to Parkview in May 2019, and loves the people that she sees every day. Congratulations, June, for being chosen as Parkview Healthcare Facility’s Resi- dent of the Month!
