June D. Yarbrough

HILLVIEW COMMUNITY: June Driggers Yarbrough, 58, passed away January 21, 2023, after a long, hard battle. She worked at Altamaha Pest Control as the office manager for many years. June loved attending church at First Baptist Church in Claxton where she was an active member. She also enjoyed the beach, animals and birds. She was a loving wife, mother and Nanny. She never met a stranger; many people knew her as “June” but even more referred to her as “Nanny”. She loved her grandchildren and dog, Chloe more than life. She enjoyed spending time with them and spoiling them rotten. June always had a positive outcome and was constantly smiling.

June was preceded in death by her parents, John Walt Driggers and Mary Sue Gibson.
