Juanita was a true precious gem. She spent 5 days a week with our family for months while our mom was sick and for months after she passed. I can’t imagine how we would have survived without her.

Juanita worked for several family members for years. Everyone thought highly of her. As a young married man, I stayed with my Grandma for a couple weeks, in between moving. One day Juanita left me a note on the bedroom dresser that said , "Pick up your things, Mrs Sauer don't make messes". I arrogantly though, WHAT....? I'm family! ..... Then my wife let me know I did make messes and that I should be grateful for Juanita being so protective of my grandma and her things....Now I was mad at both of them. lol As time went on I became more grateful for her and and her heart and how much she loved and cared for my grandma. And she was right...I do make messes. lol I think of her often, with the warmest of thoughts, every time someone tells me to clean up my messes..😊 She was a precious soul and with her there, I'm sure there are NO messes in HEAVEN!!
