June Ader Obituary
June Townes (Hiter) Ader, 83 of Nashville, TN passed away peacefully at her home on May 17 in Waupaca, WI with her husband at her side after a long illness.
She was born in Nashville, TN, daughter of Lester and Mackie Townes. She is survived by her husband of 22 years, Vern Ader, her loving children, Dale (Brenda) Hiter, Leeanne (David) Billen, Danny (Tami) Hiter, and Kristen (Rich) Schiavoni; her four grandchildren, Lori Hiter, Ryne Hiter, Shelby Hiter, and Tori Hiter, and one great grandchild, Jaycee Lindner. She will also be deeply mourned by Vern's children, Leigh (Jim) Herbert, Barbara (Roger) Mueller, Dan (Cindy) Ader, Andy (Dee) Ader, and Karl (Gina) Ader.
June is preceded in death by her former spouse and father of her children, Warren Hiter, her parents, Lester and Mackie Townes, and her sister, Rosemary Crabtree.
An alumnus of Antioch High School, she later graduated the LPN program at Nashville General Hospital. She retired as a well-respected and highly skilled scrub nurse of the OR unit at Nashville Memorial Hospital in Madison, TN where she had worked for over 20 years.
Retired and newly wed, she and Vern were snowbirds with homes in Florida and Wisconsin before settling in Waupaca, WI two years ago. June was vibrant and loved travel, her garden, animals, and all things World War II, never missing an opportunity to thank a veteran.
A memorial and remembrance gathering will be scheduled in Nashville by her family at an appropriate time.

We met June through Vern several years ago and we fell in love with her instantly. Vern lost his wife Sally but eventually June came along and brought Vern much happiness after! We were so happy to see that. She will be missed by so many people.

June was a great woman with a kind heart. One way that I remember she expressed her love was through her cooking, and she was a gifted cook. I still use her recipes. I remember her playing solitaire on the couch using a makeshift tray before solitaire became a computer game. I remember her tearing to and from her work as a nurse in her little pickup truck. I remember after dinner talks in front of a fire at a different time and in a different place. She was always good to me, and I am glad that I got to know her. Rest in peace, June.
