Juanita was vivacious and caring. Her life was a great adventure, and it is sad to see it end so young, and under sad circumstances. This world will miss her as will her family and friends.

juanita… i know u r n the lords hands n u won’t suffer anymore. i will see u again.
I just want everyone to know what a great Aunt Juanita was to me and my 2 girls. I have so many fond memories of her when I was growing up..Me and my brother called her Aunt Wannie. She was only 12 when I came along, so it was like having an older sister to look up to. I remember watching her practice cheerleading in the front yard, her orange room with the black carpet, and the cat clock with the swinging tail! I loved her green and white pompoms..and secretly wanted them for myself. She taught me to eat my mashed potatoes with carrot sticks..which I do to this day. When I got older, and had children, she would always send them stuff that they absolulty loved…I only wish that so many miles and schedules restricted visits. But the girls knew and loved her. I could go on and on…just know we were blessed to have her in our lives. And my heart is breaking knowing that she is gone. To Uncle Mike..You are a saint to have taken care of her in her illness. We are so glad she had someone who loved her like that. We love you, Aunt Wannie!
It’s hard to find the words to say to confort you in your time of sorrow, but knowing the love you have for each other will live on forever. May God bless you and give you the faith of Love forever. Classmate 1976

Mike,
My thoughts, prayers and love go out to you during this sad time of losing your love and soulmate. Since I haven’t lived in Fairview for over 30 years I didn’t realize Juanita was sick until about 3 months ago. I have heard how you took such special care of her during her illness. Friend, there are stars in your crown for being such a caring husband and I pray God will bless you for your faithfulness and love to Juanita. I’m praying for you and trust that God will give you everything you need today and in the weeks ahead as you adjust to life without Juanita.
Mike, I am so sorry to hear of Juanita passing. You will be in our thoughts and prayers as you go through this time. I pray that Gods love will confort all of you
Mike,
I have many happy remembrances of Juanita. She is so peaceful now. The most important thing I want you to know is how much I respect the love and care you gave to her. That is the greatest blessing any of us could hope to have, is someone who loves and stands by us when we are sick and or dying. I know you gave Juanita a sense of care and security. She married a good man, and you married a good woman. Its in Gods hands now. He has taken care of Juanita and He will now take care of you. Love, Judy
Mike, I am so sorry for your loss. Juanita was such a joy to be around. Always smiling, always laughing. I’m sure she’s in a much better place now. Pain free and dancing at God’s feet. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Mike & family,
So sorry to hear of Juanita’s passing. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hope to see you at our class reunion. Class of 1976
Mike,
Sorry we don’t get to see each other very much. But I wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. We will hath to go fishing again sometime soon. If you need me for anything let me know.
Dear Mike,
I wish I could take away the pain you are feeling and I can’t fully understand what you are going through, but I do want you to know I am here for you. My prayers and heartfelt sympathy are with you. You know that Juanita was always one of my favorite young ladies that I worked with through the years as their cheerleading sponsor. She was a little bundle of energy and such a leader. You are to be commended for taking such good care of her and her Mom in their final days. Blessings to you. Love in Christ,

I just wanted to share some things about my Aunt Juanita. She was a fun aunt. When I was little, I remember watching her practice cheerleading in the front yard. I wanted those green and white pompoms like you wouldn’t believe. Always asking to play with them…sometimes she let me. I remember she had an orange and black room in high school, with a black cat clock, whose tail moved. I thought it was so cool. I learned to like to eat carrot sticks with mashed potatoes from her. She loved dogs, I remember when she brought home a stray cocker spaniel, who they named Scotch. He was the meanest dog, but she loved him, and he loved her. Years later, Grandma Reel sent my youngest a stuffed cocker spaniel. We named it Scotch, and it is a very special lovey. These are just a few examples of what a vivacious and fun person my aunt is. We love her so much, and will miss her greatly. My only wish is that we had been more able to visit. Miles and obligations held us all back, and I wish I had found a way. To my Mom, you and Juanita had a special bond, and I am so sorry. To Uncle Mike, thank you for taking care of her, again, I am so sorry. We will pray for her and you both. My heart is breaking. I am just glad she is at peace. I wish I could be there…my heart will be with you today. I was so blessed to have such a great aunt. Love, Chimene,Mike, Breanna, and Alexis
Mike, You are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Juanita was the youngest of the cousins and always had a special place in our hearts! I know this has been a very difficult two years. She was blessed to have the wonderful care you gave her.
With Deepest Sympathy,
