Visit the Preddy Funeral Home - Gordonsville website to view the full obituary.
Juanita Jenkins passed away on October 23, 2025.
Juanita was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, and dear friend.
Renowned for her passion for sewing and exceptional gardening skills, she also found happiness in painting and had a deep love for singing. Juanita dedicated her life to Christ for many years and she was a member of Grace Freewill Baptist Church, where she shared her beautiful voice with the congregation. Her worship songs often filled the church with joy, leaving a lasting impression on all who heard her sing.
She was a beacon of strength and a source of inspiration to everyone she met. Her faith guided her through life's challenges with grace and resilence, and she was always ready to lend a helping hand or a comforting word to those in need
Her family was her greatest treasure, and she dedicated herself wholeheartedly to nurturing and supportng them. Juanita's home was always open, a place of welcome and love.
Although she has left this world to embrace the serenity of heaven, her spirit remains vibrant in the hearts of those who cherish her. It can be felt in the quilts she crafted with love, and in the beautiful paintings that adom our walls.
Those who remain to honor her memory and feel her absence are her husband, Tommy Jenkins, her daughters. Mary Carver.
Sheila Matney, Teresa Justice, and Lisa Austin; along with her cherished grandchildren and great-grandchildren, as well as many other friends and relatives,
Juanita is preceded in death by her son, Anthony Carver.
While her absence will be profoundly missed, we find comfort in knowing that she has found peace and has joyfully become a part of the heavenly choir.
A graveside service will be held at 3 p.m. on Monday, October 27, 2025, at Grace Free Will Baptist Church in Louisa.
