was one of eleven children born to Antonio & Maria Juarez.
The Juarez family resided in Owensmouth (later to become Canoga Park) but farmed throughout the West San Fernando Valley. When World War II struck she left school to help out at home. Various jobs followed but her lifelong career became the bookkeeper for the family and business. She certainly was the right woman for the job! At age 21, she married our Dad then began life with her true love. God blessed her with three children, nine grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.
