So sorry to read about Juanita's passing. She and my Mom were very close friends many years ago. They always stayed in touch even after my parents moved out of NJ. Here's a tidbit to make you smile. When I got married 43 years ago, one of the wedding gifts from the Mika's was an ironing board! I hated to iron, but taking the ironing board out always made me think of Juanita. May she rest in peace.
