Obituary by Ronald J. Chamberlin


JUNE IRENE VITELLARO born June Irene Porter February 5, 1919 in Pueblo, Colorado, died October 19, 2010 at the age of 91 in Las Vegas, Nevada where she had lived for the past 26 years.  June, a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother, has returned to the Lord who gave her life.  She joins her son Jimmy, who preceded her in death in 2002 at the age of 59, her mother, Genevieve, who died in 1962, her daughter’s son, Johnny, who died, in infancy, in 1961 and so many other friends and family.  June, together with her first husband, Jean Chamberlin, raised three children in California, Ronald Chamberlin of Phelan, California, Dianna Pacillo, of Las Vegas, Nevada, and Jimmy Chamberlin, now deceased.  Her marriage to Jean ended in divorce after 20 years.  June, an only daughter, was practically inseparable from her mother.  They were like two peas in a pod.  June and her daughter, Dianna, have always been the same.  She is survived, today, by her devoted husband of 51 years, Joseph Anthony Vitellaro, her son, Ronald, her daughter, Dianna, 16 grandchildren, 43 great-grandchildren, and 8 great-great-grandchildren.  Although she struggled with Alzheimer’s for the last few years, she led a full and wonderful life.  June loved her family and will be missed by all who knew and loved her.  She will be laid to rest at Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery following a short service held there at 10:30 AM Thursday, October 28, 2010
