June B. Goodfield

LEBANON – The amazing woman that was June Belle Goodfield passed away peacefully on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, her loved ones by her side. She was born on June 29th, 1931, in Wolfboro, N.H., to Earnest and Mildred (Newhall) French. She attended Spaulding High School in Rochester, NH up to 1949. Although she didn't graduate, she worked hard to receive her GED. She was employed at the G.E. factory in Somersworth, NH until she retired after 30 years. June will be remembered for her bold, teasing sense of humor and incredible love for family, for all her listening and caring, talks and sharing, laughter and tears throughout all the years. She enjoyed vacations and trips with family, family reunions, birthday parties, restaurant outings with the “Lunch Bunch”, and especially the HUGE Christmas parties where everyone was gathered together in one place… always looking for an excuse to gather family and friends together. She loved poetry and wrote many rhymes about family and friends that we are happy to share, just ask any one of us. She loved to crochet clothing for her grandchildren and beautiful blankets of all sizes. Other likes were crossword puzzles, westerns, and beating people in cribbage. She was also very proud of the fact that she was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Mother of 9 children: Judy Waterhouse and James, Kathy and Mike Grassi, Susan and Joe St. Laurent, Diane and Jerry Lassor, Cindy and Steve Fontneau, Wayne and Kelley Goodfield, Patty and Mark Hanson, Danny Goodfield, and David Goodfield. Grammy to 22 grandchildren, 33 great-grandchildren and 14 great-great grandchildren. She is the one that started it all. The strongest and sharpest woman any of us have ever known. She never forgot a birthday (spouses included) and she loved each and every one of us. She will be greatly missed. She leaves behind so many wonderful memories and traditions for us to carry on as her legacy. She is preceded in death by her husband, Clarence (Buddy); three brothers, Lewis, David, & Kenny; grandchildren, Jessica and Zachary.
