Everytime I would help her get up, or help her into her bed/chair, I would always say hey grandma (she loved it when I called her this) let's dance. And we would dance back and forth for a few seconds.....she would be laughing and booging along then say "oh you wear me out" She wasn't just my job, she was grandma and I will miss her deeply. 

I am forever grateful that I had the pleasure of knowing you and having the opportunity to care for you. I have several great memories of you and one to be specific was when I would walk down the hallway by your room and just look at you until you noticed me and would always smile from ear to ear when you would see me and I would tip toe towards you and you would just laugh bc you knew I was coming in hot for a big hug. I also remember I would come in to get you up and ready for breakfast and you would tell me to jump in and let’s go back to bed. I remember our conversations and you loved it when I would play with your hair. We had some great times you and I and I will be forever grateful for the time I spent with you. Fly high ya ya I love you forever and always ❤️

Juanita and I became close quickly! 
I loved her slinky and sassy attitude , especially when she didn't want to do something, she would come out into the hall, telling us all how she owned and ran the entire place and she was the boss and would fire everyone. Many staff members called her our Grandma Wawa or just grandma!! She had a heart full of gold and a smile that lit up the entire room!! Loved having her dance with us and just always smiling!! 
You'll be missed and loved for interinty!! 
Rip grandma juanita!! 

Loved Miss Juanita from the first time we met. There was something about her wit and sparkling personality. She would always tell people that she had known me for years because we went to school together. I never had the heart to tell her any different. She will always have a special place in my heart and will always be missed. Fly high my special angel. Love you much.
