My thoughts are with John and all of the family members involved. I enjoyed many wonderful moments with Juanita as teh RCC of Cherry Springs prior to my move. Best wishes as you face the trying times ahead Cheryl
Brenda, John and family, My deepest sympathy to each of you in the loss of your Mother. My heart goes out to you and you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God’s grace sustain you in these days. Alton
Although we are grieving for you here I know you are happy to be home now. I loved you with all my heart but know you and other loved ones will be waiting for me when I make the final journey.
John, Brenda & Family: To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I had a very tough Aunt she found the good fight and now she is at home with the Lord with that glorified body. She will be missed, she still had a very good sense of humor no matter how sick she got. I had the priviledge of sharing a lot of that food she cooked and she was a wonderful cook. Such a lady we will all miss her so.
Love and Prayers to each of you
I was a neighbor of Juanita and Art for several years on Fifth Avenue. I will always remember Juanita as a gentle, friendly, kindhearted person who often shared cookies or cake or maybe a bowl of soup with me and others. May God rest her soul.
