Our dear Juanita will be missed by many. She was our neighbor for the past ten years and I personally will miss her walking her companion, Muffin, past our home each day. It's been just a little over a year that I have been having afternoon chats with her surrounded with lots and lots of quilting blocks.....she loved to quilt.
John and Ellen, it was so nice of you to walk Muffin after your Mom became ill....she appreciated it and we know Muffin did too.
I too was a recipient of one of those notorious cookbooks of hers and I'm looking forward to having great meals by using it.
There seems to be a void in our lives right now, but we are glad Juanita is no longer suffering...
Please know your family is in our thoughts, and we are praying that your wonderful memories will comfort you during this sad time. May God bless you all.
In loving mmemory, Marilyn & Darrell

I knew Juanita for many years when we lived in the Denver 10th ward and University Hills ward. She was so supportive of everyone in the ward and always gave kind words to everyone to help them feel better. My condolences to her family for their loss. I know she is in a better place but she will be missed.

Best Wishes,
Galen Chock

Linda, Ellen and Family,

Please know that you all are in our prayers with the loss of your beloved Mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Sister and Friend.

Juanita and Jack were our neighbors and were part of the fabric of our neighborhood and lives on the 1600 block of S. Humboldt, for a very long time.

Always a smile and wave came from their house and if you played your cards right, Juanita (or Jack) would give you a jar of something home canned or freshly baked, to brighten your day. : )

Juanita will be greatly missed by many in the University Hills ward here in Denver and the neighborhood.

God Bless each one of you.
