Born December 17, 1925 in North Platte, NE to Roll and Nellie (Scott) Davidson.
June loved to travel. As a child she was blessed to travel by train to amazing destinations as her father was an engineer with the UP out of North Platte.
She loved to tell stores of their adventures from coast to coast including the 1933 Chicago World's Fair.
On June 30, 1946 in North Platte, NE she married the love of her life, Joseph W. Brott, following his return from 3 years in Germany during WWII.
After attending and graduating North Platte High School, 1943-their engagement/courtship was via letters throughout Joe's Army duty. June counted the days Joe was gone, faithfully writing letters and sending packages.
June volunteered at the North Platte Canteen serving WWII servicemen traveling across the country by train during the war and was active in prayer groups for the soldiers.
After attending Business College, June enjoyed a long career-retiring from Amoco Oil (Standard Oil of Indiana) and also from a second career with the Kellogg Company in Omaha NE.
She was a member of the Gentle Shepherd Baptist Church, Lincoln NE, the Nebraska Woodcarvers Club, Omaha and the Nebraska Scottish Society. June was a lifelong believer, attending Baptist churches and enjoyed church activities, always willing to help with anything asked of her.
During retirement they lived at Beaver Lake, NE and enjoyed lake life a great deal. They enjoyed traveling across the U.S. and Europe where again June enjoyed trains.
She learned to be a woodcarver with Joe, was very proud of her Scottish heritage and toured Scotland several times. She was fascinated with and worked diligently on genealogy. June was a very good story teller of all the amazing experiences of her life and that of her family.
Throughout 68 years of marriage June and Joe were always together and became known for the holding of hands, smiles and kisses between them. Their legacy of love, patience, tenderness and kindness is a blessed gift to their family and friends.
