On July 9, 2025, at the Garden Home, June Watts (née Diamond) passed away peacefully with her family by her side. Survived by her husband of almost seventy years, Louie Watts, Charlottetown formerly of Stanhope, her daughters, Wendy (Randy Francis) and Sandra (Rob Mayhew) and four grandchildren who she adored, Jesse Francis, Magie Francis (Aaron Thibeau), Javon Mayhew (Michelle Stetson) and Kiera Mayhew. Also survived by her sister, Jean Baird (John, deceased) and her brothers, John Diamond (Beryl) and Sterling Diamond. She was predeceased by her son, Brian, in 1998 and her parents, Ernie and Anne Diamond.
June worked as a Pharmacy Assistant at the PEI Provincial Pharmacy for most of her career. In retirement, she enjoyed travel, including road trips to Newfoundland and Labrador, across Canada, the Western United States and thirty winters in New Port Ritchey, Florida with Louie. She also enjoyed mixed curling in her younger years, Ross Lane Beach, bingo and family rummoli nights. Her fun-loving spirit and sarcastic wit will be missed terribly.
