June Elizabeth Emerson, 63, of Prosper, TX, passed away Wednesday, October 14, 2020 in Prosper, TX. June was born January 19, 1957 in Charleston, SC to Willard Bruce Powell and Eloda Jane Selbo. June married Greg L. Emerson on July 6, 1991 in Plano, TX. June attended Abilene Christian University. June loved God and she believed her primary purpose on earth was to lead her children to Jesus. All three of her children continue to love the Lord and carry on her legacy. She believed that we were put on this earth to serve others and not ourselves, and she lived her life showing us all how to do that. June loved her husband, Greg and devoted herself to being a godly wife. Their marriage has been an inspiration to their children and will continue to be a standard of excellence to all of those who knew them. She was raised by two wonderful parents that served the Lord and showed us an incredible example of a loving marriage. June loved being called “Nana” by her grandchildren, Harlow and Emmy, and she delighted in watching them play, swim, and laugh. June always had perfectly painted nails and perfectly “poofed” red hair. She enjoyed estate sales, looking for fine chocolate pots, hobnail, and teacups. She loved gladiolas, and stargazer lilies and had a true love of diet Dr. Pepper. June adored her family and will leave us all knowing that we were truly loved and cared for. She left us lasting memories and she will be missed greatly until we will be together again. June is survived by her husband, Greg; parents, Bruce and Eloda of Memphis, TN; daughter, Eva Wattenburger and husband Blake of Frisco, TX; son, Brad Eason and wife Kirsten of Boulder, CO; and youngest daughter, Kayla Emerson of Lubbock, TX; granddaughters, Harlow and Emersyn Wattenburger of Frisco, TX; brother, Bill Powell and wife Francelia of Marshall, VA. A memorial service will be held at 2:00PM, Saturday, October 24, at Greenville Oaks Church of Christ in Allen, TX at 703 S. Greenville Ave, Allen, TX 75002 with Jim Welch officiating.
