The urn for June’s ashes was designed and built by her son, Mike Holm, and painted by her old friend, artist Eliza Schurman. The top of the urn was left open to hold a flower arrangement for the service.
Here is a video from the Memorial Service in which Eliza talks about the images on the urn, the process of painting it, and her friendship with June. More photos further down.
