June Delores (Johnson) Feigum, 87, a resident of Fergus Falls, died Sunday, June 19, 2016, at PioneerCare in Fergus Falls under the care of Lakeland Hospice.
June was born December 11, 1928, to Andrew and Gertrude (Nomeland) Johnson at the family farm in Carlos, MN. The road is now called Johnson Road. She grew up on this farm with 3 brothers. She attended rural school and Central High School in Alexandria, graduating in 1947. After graduating, she moved to town (Alexandria) and began working at Woolworths while sharing an apartment with girl- friends. She loved to go to ballroom dances. At one of those dances, she met her perfect dancing partner for life. June married Joseph Allen Feigum (Joe) September 5, 1954, at First Lutheran Church in Alexandria.
After a couple years living in Minneapolis, June and Joe returned to the rural Carlos area and eventually purchased the family farm where June was raised. They spent most of their lives there, as they raised their three children there and were members of the Trinity Lutheran Church in Carlos. June worked at Woolworths most of her life as well, taking time off here and there as she had children. She loved working at Woolworths, in the office and around the store and became great friends with the other ladies who also worked there for many years. After she retired, she continued to organize lunch outings with the "Woolworths girls" for many years. June loved her church circle groups and home makers. She loved to crochet and bake, and could produce a lunch in a snap for unexpected company. June loved her children unconditionally. More than anything, June loved Joe. They went to dances regularly all their married life and revisited their honeymoon destination in the Duluth/North Shore Drive area almost every year until she could no longer. They spent their Golden Years in Fergus Falls near their daughter's family and enjoyed meeting new friends at Augustana Lutheran Church in Fergus Falls.
She is preceded in death by her son, Ronald Feigum; her parents, Andrew and Gertrude Johnson; and her brothers, Carl, Wilfred, and Johnny Johnson.
