Loved Always and Forever!

February 21, 1935 - April 6, 2015

Our beloved Juanita entered into eternal rest on April 6, 2015, in Columbia, South Carolina, the day after Easter and the day before the birthday of her surviving son, Glen K. LaConey, who was Juanita's full-time caregiver, until she passed. "Mom was a pleasure to care for", Glen said. "I'd be honored to do it all again, if necessary."

Juanita ("Nita"), a prophetess, was a compassionate soul who had a fondness for animals and who advocated for the prevention of animal cruelty. She may be compared to Tabitha, also known as Dorcas, described in Acts 9:36. Her son, Glen, said, "I have never met anyone who loved others as deeply as Mom. She loves the way Christ loved. In fact, I used to think she is strange for loving those who mistreated her. Now I realize how blessed I am to have her as my mom. I speak in the present tense because she is a follower of Christ, who said, "I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.", John 11:25, 26 (KJV). I am convinced that the date of Mom's passing has a spiritual significance. We are Mom and Son in Christ, always and forever!"

Nita was a native New Yorker, who's vast occupational experience included nursing, manufacturing and data processing for the New York Stock Exchange.

Juanita truly is Loved Always and Forever!
