June Shearer

June Anne Shearer, age 57, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, April 12, 2026, at CRMC in Coffeyville.

Born on November 4, 1968, in Rockford, Illinois, June was the daughter of William James Riding and Jo Ann (Key) Harding. The family later relocated to Parsons, Kansas, where June attended grade school alongside her siblings and graduated from Parsons High School. During her high school years, she was a cheerleader and continued cheering while earning her associate’s degree from Coffeyville Community College.

June dedicated the past 28 years to serving as a substitute teacher within the Coffeyville Schools. Prior to that, she operated an in-home daycare for several years, demonstrating her deep commitment to children and their well-being.

In her leisure time, June enjoyed trips to the casino with her daughter, Markenzie, and cherished every moment spent with her grandchildren and special nieces, Abby and Laci. She was known for her unwavering love and nurturing spirit toward her family. June also had a fondness for her dogs and embraced a fun and playful personality, often striking up conversations and making friends wherever she went. She was known as the life of the party and was always willing to help others despite her own limitations.

June shared a long-term relationship with Robert Daily. While no longer a couple, they remained close friends and treasured their travels and vacations together.

She is survived by her children, Whitney Grier and Markenzie Overton; her grandchildren Wyatt, Payton, Titan, Kaira, Ziva, Zaydan, Sahara, Bryleigh, LaKai, and Marquise Jr.; her sisters Mary Noland (and husband George), Betty Nelson, Janie Hawk, and Tammy Robinson (and husband Levi); and her friend Robert Daily.

A graveside memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Monday, April 27, 2026, at Fairview Cemetery, where June will be laid to rest alongside her mother, Jo Ann. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions be made to Ford-Wulf-Bruns Chapel to assist with June’s final expenses. Contributions may be left in care of the chapel.
