June G. Schmidt
Died: Aug 4, 2018
She married her childhood sweetheart, John William Schmidt, following WWII on December 8, 1945, and they were happily married for 72 years. They moved to Paramus in 1955 where they raised their family and developed many life long friendships. Most recently they have been living at The House of the Good Shepherd in Hackettstown, NJ..
June was an active member at Christ Lutheran Church in Paramus for almost 60 years. She cherished her church family. She spent her life caring for and bringing joy to everyone around her. She touched many lives and the world is a better place because of her bright and generous spirit. She was a "living angel" as her life was one of faith and love of family. She was a "confidante" who provided wise counsel with a beautiful smile and words of encouragement to everyone she met. She "never met a stranger".
June is survived by her husband John and her daughters Jacquelyn Trainor and her husband Edward of Succasunna, NJ, and Jill Budd and her husband Ronald of Hackettstown, NJ. She is also survived by her four grandchildren, Megan, Kevin, Molly and Brian whom she absolutely adored.
She spent many years babysitting and now has several "adopted" grandchildren with whom she shares a very special relationship, namely Emily, Holly, Brad and Brian Collins. Also, Kevin Patrick Reynolds, who she has loved like a son since he was a baby.
A service of Christian burial will be held on Friday, August 10, 2018 at Christ Lutheran Church, 357 Farview Avenue, Paramus at 11:00 a.m. Internment will immediately follow at George Washington Memorial Park Cemetery, Paramus and Century Roads, Paramus, NJ.

Dear Folks, We were so saddened to hear of June's passing. In the short time we have come to know her, she instilled such a sense of charisma, sweetness and kindness; a person who truly loved life and what it had to offer. She will be dearly missed by the residents @ The House and especially her 2nd floor neighbors. Our Deepest Condolences to you all. God Bless.
