Juanise Floyd Obituary

Juanise Floyd

Juanise Lovell Floyd, 44, a resident of Bayou Vista, was received into eternal rest on Wednesday, Aug. 24, 2011. She passed away unexpectedly, but peacefully, on the shrimp boat, in Oyster Bayou, doing what she loved at her tender age.

Visitation will be from 6 to 9 p.m. Sunday and from 10 a.m. to funeral time Monday at Twin City Funeral Home. Funeral Services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday at the funeral home, with burial in the Morgan City Cemetery.

Juanise is survived by her husband of 24 years, Joel Floyd; one daughter, Shara Floyd; one son, Joel Floyd II, all of Bayou Vista; mother, Geraldine Lovell of Bayou Vista; two sisters, Jennine Lovell Martin and husband, Michael, and Cresside Lovell, all of Bayou Vista; two brothers, Leroy Lovell Jr. and wife, Sheila, of Theriot, and Leeland Lovell and wife, Katie, of Morgan City; mother and father-in-law, Margaret and Edward "Smokey" Floyd of Bayou Vista; and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her father, Leroy Lovell Sr.; maternal grandmother and grandfather, Thelma Adams Lacoste and Gerald Lacoste; grandfather, Oscar Lacoste Sr.; and paternal grandmother and grandfather, Nora Dehart Lovell and Vincent Lovell.

She was a devoted wife to the love of her life. She was there for every and anything he needed. She was a True Mother! She loved her kids and provided them with a home full of love, home-cooked meals daily, her time and energy, her ability to communicate with them on any level.

She was the best daughter a mother could ask for, the most awesome sister that anyone could have, you couldn't ask for a better aunt/nanny she loved those kids and was a friend of many. You never would go hungry around Juanise's house as you were always welcome to grab a bite of whatever she had cooked. Some of our favorites were her Beef stew, chicken spaghetti and shrimp dip. She loved her peanut butter candy and she liked talking and getting to know people. She loved to put the music blaring, jammin' to the radio. She enjoyed playing Bingo and would give the shirt off her back to a stranger, friend or family member.

Twin City Funeral Home of Morgan City is in charge of arrangements.
