To the family of Ms. Neece. I will miss Ms. Juanita. She always made me feel welcomed in her home. She always had a smile and always made time for me. Many times I was invited to her house for Christmas and Thanksgiving and I will always remember how I was treated like one of the family. She had a wonderful sense of humor. Prayers for the family.
