June Ardith Krznarich, 83, of Ironwood, died Saturday, Jan. 7, 2012, in Hurley, after a brief illness.      Ardith, as she was best known, was born on April 7, 1928, in Wakefield, Mich., the daughter of Anna (Johnson) and John Pezzetti. She attended Wakefield schools and graduated from Wakefield High School with the class of 1945. After high school, she worked at her father's tavern, the Sports Bar, in Wakefield.      On June 9, 1949, she married Milton Krznarich at the rectory of Holy Trinity Church in Ironwood. Milt and Ardith spent the first two years of marriage living in Watersmeet, Mich. and then moved to Ironwood. Ardith was a caring and devoted wife and mother who always put her family first. When her husband Milt was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, she proved to be a tireless caregiver for over twenty years. Her pride and joy were her sons. She especially enjoyed attending their sporting events, whether they would be playing or coaching. She was their safety net, always there. She loved animals, having a genuine love for her own dogs, but also for any stray that might wander into the Krznarich yard. In her later years, she chose to pursue a quiet life in her home in Jessieville. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.      Survivors include her two sons, Jim (Julie), of Ironwood, and Milt (Bonnie), of Norway, Mich.; grandson, Dan (Amanda) Krznarich, Appleton; sister, Muriel Vidakovich, and brother, Don (Joellyn) Pezzetti, both of Wakefield; brother-and-sister-in-law, Matt and Virginia Krznarich, Sun City, Ariz; and numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews.          She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Milt; sister, Judy Ravelli; brothers, Jim Pezzetti and Keith Pezzetti, in infancy; and brothers-and-sisters-in-law, John and Pat Krznarich, Dennis Ravelli, Nick Vidakovich, Janet Pezzetti, Bruno and Katherine Rodeghiero, and Joe and Faye Krznarich.      In accordance with Ardith's wishes, cremation has taken place.      A memorial gathering will be held Saturday, Jan. 14, from 1 to 3 p.m., with a time for sharing of memories from 2:30 to 3 p.m., at the McKevitt-Patrick Funeral Home, 305 N. Lowell St., in Ironwood.      Private inurnment will be in the spring in Lakeside Cemetery, Wakefield.      Ardith's obituary can be viewed online and condolences given to her family at mckevittpatrickfuneralhome.com.      Arrangements are entrusted to McKevitt-Patrick Funeral Home and Cremation Services of Ironwood.
