In Our Thoughts and Prayers
George, Libby and Samuel, We are so sorry to hear of Juanita’s passing. May God give you all strength for each passing day. We know with certainty Juanita is now in the presence of her Saviour. May God give you comfort and peace until you meet once again. We love you and you are in our prayers.
Beautiful Friend
Sweet Juanita, always a praying phone call or text away, no matter the day/time. You were an inspiration and BEAUTIFUL mentor to anyone you came in contact with and your love for the Lord was contagious. There is no doubt you are in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ the minute you departed from here.
What a huge loss for us but a tremendous gain for Heaven! See your lovely face again one day my friend…GOD IS FAITHFUL!
Continued prayers for you George, Libby, Sam and grandbabies<3

Condolences
To George & family,
We are so sorry to hear of Juanita’s passing. Scripture tells us that, for Christians, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Juanita is now present with the Lord God. Our prayer for her family is that you will take comfort in that fact. To George and family please accept our condolences and prayers for you.
