Edgewood Memory Care - Belgrade

11/19/2025

June has always had a way of spinning life into something beautiful.. literally. Born in Princeton, New Jersey, she grew up appreciating the changing seasons and the little details that make life rich. Her journey eventually led her to sunny San Diego, where she spent her early years working in a lab. But it wasn't long that she discovered her true passion wasn’t in a lab, but in her family, her land, and her sheep.

June became an avid sheep farmer and master weaver, turning wool into works of art and showing the world that creativity and a little flair can make everyday things extraordinary. She shared her talents at festivals, in newspaper articles, and, most importantly, with everyone lucky enough to watch her work her craft.

June found herself at Edgewood Memory Care - Belgrade nearly a year ago. Her weaving now takes place in the connections she forms, crafting friendships into a tapestry that makes every day brighter.

Here, our residents are stitched together by people like June, creating one large, vibrant masterpiece. We are Edgewood.
