June Fortune Wolff

June Fortune Wolff (Junie, June Lee and Junebug), 83, passed away peacefully on November 29, 2025, entering the Kingdom of her Lord and Savior while surrounded by her loving children. She had been receiving acute hospice care, due to varying medical issues, and she met this final season with the same quiet strength and grace that defined her life. Born on April 29, 1942, in Washington, DC, June was the second of two children of Maynard L. Fortune and Ruth I. Fortune (née Cumbo). June’s childhood was very much grounded in dance, as she was a skilled and talented dancer, having formal instruction through high school. She graduated from Northwestern High School in 1960, later working in several clerical positions, including with the I.B.E.W. In 1964, she married the love of her life, Walter L. Wolff (“Buddy”), and together they began their family. Watching them hit the dance floor was always joyful and additionally, June was always the first one on the dance floor at a wedding reception! She and Buddy eventually settled in Monrovia, Maryland, where they raised their children. Although they later divorced, June and Buddy continued to share holidays, milestones, and the deep bond of family throughout their lives. June found her greatest joy in being a mother. First in Wheaton and later in Monrovia, she poured her heart into creating a warm, faith-filled home. She introduced her children to Jesus and raised them at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Damascus, where each of them received their sacraments, something that meant the world to her. In 1980, June returned to the workforce with Porcelite Enterprises, where she became a dedicated and trusted member of the team, leading Customer Service and Scheduling with her trademark patience and kindness. After 38 years of service she retired in 2018, moving from Columbia to Centreville, to be closer to family, while remaining lovingly connected to many of her Porcelite colleagues as well as her dear friends from the Western shore. To know June was to be loved and valued. She had a way of making every person she encountered feel special, whether through her listening ear, her thoughtful advice, or her quiet acts of kindness. Her love was steady, wholehearted, and unconditional. She delighted in simple joys, especially gathering with family over Maryland crabs or her homemade sausage gravy (a family tradition passed down by her mother), cherishing every moment spent with the people she held dear. June especially loved the Redskins and later the Ravens, and even this Fall was still enjoying NFL Sundays. She took Kimberly to San Francisco in 1988 to see a 49ers game and they met Joe Gibbs and several players! June was thrilled. When not watching football she was typically tuned in to QVC, getting her shopping fix! Ordering gifts from QVC was one of her love languages. She also was the best at back scratches, which was another June love language! June leaves behind a legacy rooted in warmth, compassion, and devotion. She is survived by her children, Glen Christian Wolff (Katie) and Kimberly Ann Hazuda (Scott); and her beloved grandchildren, Caroline Lucille Hazuda and Reed Scott Hazuda, all of whom were the light of her life. She was predeceased by her eldest son, Jeff Daniel Wolff, whom she cared for with unwavering love during his health struggles, her brother, Robert L. Fortune, and her parents and stepfather, Magruder W. Huff. June’s family extends their heartfelt appreciation to the stellar caregivers of Arcadia Assisted Living in Denton, her wonderful OnSite Medical care team, and the compassionate providers at the University of Maryland Shore Medical Center and Compass Regional Hospice. Their care and kindness were blessings during her final months. A Celebration of Life will be held at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Centreville, Maryland, on Saturday, March 7 2026, at 11:00 a.m. in the sanctuary, followed by a luncheon and fellowship in the Parish Hall upstairs. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you honor June by befriending someone who may be lonely, an act she would have embraced wholeheartedly.
