Juana Harlan Serrano

Juanita Serrano-Harlan was a blessing in this life as a free spirit with a heart of rose gold; one that will stay in our hearts forever. Being a shining light wherever she shared her unconditional love for others, she lived her life where she was able to uplift others through the attentive care felt in the interactions shared. She shared her affections, bright energy by filling the room with laughter and smiles through her playfulness along with her innate sense of humor. Through her singing and dancing she shared an abundance of joy for life that one could not help resonating with when in her presence.

Juanita worked and volunteered at various community-based organizations where she supported others by dedicating her efforts into the lasting impacts felt by all. As a proud farm workers advocate she was able to spread awareness, education and support where needed.

She showed her children whom she called her pride and joy strength through being persistent resilient, and adaptable, while using passion and vigor through struggles along life’s journey.
