We lost one of the best mothers and grandmothers that ever walked on this earth. She cannot be replaced, but we are confident that we will see her again. Juanita was loving, kind, full of grace and selfless. She will always be carried in the hearts of her family members and friends. We find comfort in knowing that she followed her Savior, Christ Jesus, her entire life and is now home with Him.
The family would like to thank New Hope Hospice and all that took good care of her during this journey.
