She was a pillar of strength for her family and friends. She cherished spending time with them. Juanita enjoyed cooking, feeding, and teaching her children how to make recipes. She welcomed people into her warm-hearted home, with open arms and a warm smile. Her love for shopping extended to makeup, clothes, home dcor and more. Which truly made her shine. She loved to watch her telenovelas (Spanish TV Soaps). Her favorite was "La Rosa De Guadalupe," on Univision.
Music was also an integral part of Juanita's life; she loved all types and could often be found dancing and singing along to her favorite songs. She also liked animals, her 4 pets (cats) named: Kitty, Shadow, Rosie and Blacki. Her favorite was "Rosie" she called "Rosa". Her pets made her laugh.
She was classy, strong, smart, wise, very nice and giving, a great cook, and had a good sense of humor. She was an inspiration to all. Juanita was the rarest and brightest gem.
Her legacy lives on through her family including her loving children: Patricia (Martin) Ramos, Alejandro (Tiffany) Camacho, Claudia (Sam) Camacho-Duran and Mariana Veronica (Joseph) Camacho-Lozano.

Juanita was also a best friend to many including: Barbara Barnes, Kelly Garcia, Mr. & Mrs. Hacha, Emma, Delfine and more.
Juanita was preceded in death by her husband: Jose Luis Camacho and parents: Ricardo Gutierrez and Delfina Ayala. Juanita's life may have ended here on earth but those who knew her will never forget the impact she made in their lives.
