WILTON — Priscilla June (Wade) Coffin Petrie, 88, passed quietly at her Wilton home in the early morning hours of Friday, April 21, surrounded by family.

June was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, at 11:59 p.m. on Feb. 18, 1929, the second child of five children, and the first daughter of Chester E. Wade and Hazel E. (Maxim) Wade Draper.

Priscilla’s mother called her “June bug” from an early age. Growing up and into her adult years, she preferred to be called June.
