June was born June 14, 1936 to Berthold and Hilda (Huber) Frasch on a farm near Menno, SD. She graduated from Menno High School in 1954. After high school, June went to work for NWPS in Yankton, SD for 2 years. She then married Gerald Gunn in 1956 and welcomed 3 daughters, Debra, Karla and Sheila. June worked tirelessly on the farm and took on jobs in the Scotland community that included Rettedal’s Department Store and the Scotland Good Samaritan Nursing Home. She began working again in 1977 for NWPS in Scotland, SD for the following 22 years. June married Roger Treick on June 25, 1994 in Scotland, SD.

June modeled for Rettedal’s Department Store on several occasions and loved taking care of her grandchildren. June and Roger enjoyed many trips across the US visiting family and friends. She also enjoyed hunting alongside Roger, an activity we did not think she would engage in! She was not shy to meet a stranger, always smiling and willing to start a conversation! Her smile and kindness will be truly missed by all.
