GILFORD — June Elaine Chamberlain, 91, of Old Lake Shore Road, passed away peacefully on May 26, 2024, at Concord Hospital - Laconia.
June was born on Nov. 30, 1932, in Laconia, the daughter of Henry Nelson Labrecque and Isabelle Angeline (Theberge) DeBlois.

She enjoyed her flowers, crocheting, puzzles, music, playing cards and visiting with family. Better yet, a good game of Yahtzee.
