Moen-Rewey, June
June grew up on the family farm the youngest of six children. She attended Plum Valley School through 8th grade and then graduated from Fennimore High School in 1945. After graduation and marriage, June spent her time raising their 6 children. She was a member of Grace Lutheran Church in Dodgeville.
In 1968 Ray began operating the Texaco Service Station in Fennimore and June helped with the bookkeeping for the business. Around the same time she began working as a CNA at the Good Samaritan Nursing Home in Fennimore. In 1975 June joined the first LPN class at Southwest Technical College and graduated with that class. She eventually began working for Dr Shields at his practice in Fennimore and then worked at Southwest Technical College in Fennimore.
June was a hard worker all her life but she also liked to fish and have fun with family and friends. When the jokes and good times began you could tell June was enjoying it by her laugh and giggle. She was known for her pie baking skills and it was usually assumed that she would bring a pie to any event she attended.
Before Ray died, he and June spent many weekends fishing in Prairie du Chien. It was their get-away place. After Ray died and June married John, they sold their home in Fennimore and moved to Prairie du Chien so they could spend more time at the river. By 2014 they could no longer keep up a home. June and John moved to a senior apartment building in Dodgeville.
