June A. Justin Patrick, 81, of Dousman, WI passed quietly with family looking over her on
November 1, 2026. She was born in Homer, Minnesota, the daughter of Julia (Ruegg) and
Raymond Sampson.
June was an elementary school teacher and reading specialist, having worked in both White
Bear Lake, Minnesota and Muskego, Wisconsin, where she is fondly remembered for
having taught thousands of kids who needed extra help to read – this was her passion.
She was the best Mom one could wish for. Her humble example of love and happiness are
the foundations her children and grandchildren were able to build their lives around.
June is survived by two sons, Jeff (Sarah) Justin, Jon (Heather) Justin, step-daughter Dawn
Patrick, step-son David (Suzette) Patrick, step-daughter Deborah Patrick, grandchildren
Connor, Kyle, Aly, Conor, Meharu, Tarikua, step-grandchildren Sean (Nicole), A.J., Steven
and Megan. She is preceded in death by her parents, her son Joel Justin and her two
husbands, Mike Patrick and Gerald Justin.
A memorial service will be held at 12:00 p.m. on November 14, 2026, at the Evangelical
Lutheran Church in Black River Falls, with Pastor Jenny Hatleli officiating. Family and
friends may gather for a visitation for the two hours prior to the service at church and lunch
will follow the service. Inurnment will be private.
Please support the continuing fight for research and removal of Alzheimer’s, which impacts
all of us.
