June C. Lampman, 81

June Cecelia Lampman, age 81, of Red Wing, died Wednesday, Dec. 19, at the Red Wing Seminary Home, after a lengthy battle with lung cancer.

June was born on June 3, 1931, in Red Wing, to Jacob and Gertrude (Kaiser) Wiebusch. She grew up in the Red Wing area and attended Red Wing Central High School.

On Nov. 25, 1948, June married Leon Lampman. They recently celebrated their 64th wedding anniversary.

During June's work life, she was employed at Red Wing Shoe Company, Goodhue County Extension Service, Montgomery Ward, State Farm Insurance and Treasure Island Resort and Casino. Her years at State Farm were the best years of her work career.

June enjoyed bowling for Clark's Super Station and held the record along with her team for most games won. She volunteered with the American Cancer Society from 1981 to 1992, helping women deal with breast cancer. She was a member of the First United Methodist Church in Red Wing and a past president of the Diamond Bluff School PTA. She loved to be with people and devoted her life to her family. She was a very giving person, and incredible wife, mother, and grandmother, and in the words of her husband, Leon, "an outstanding woman."

June is survived by her husband, Leon of Red Wing; children, Renee (Ken) Voorhees of Falmouth, Mass., Slater (Edith) Lampman of Hudson, Wis., Lani (Bruce) Engelstad of Lake City, and Kurt (Angie) Lampman of Red Wing. She is also survived by her sister Mary (Walter) Johnson of La Crescent and sister Dorothy from the state of Washington, plus 11 grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by one sister, Donna Marten, and one granddaughter, Shawna Lampman.

The family of June Lampman thanks Red Wing Hospice for the excellent care during the final months of June's life. Memorials are preferred to Red Wing Hospice.
