Juanita continued her education into college before going on to open "Juanita's Cleaning Service".

Juanita will be remembered as a loving, fair, and giving person. There wasnt a single thing Juanita wouldnt do for you. She loved spending time with her family and friends, watching movies, cooking delicious food for her family, neighbors, and even the homeless (her baked spaghetti, cakes, and brownies will be greatly missed), traveling, playing clarinet, but most of all she loved helping others.
