of Mountain View, AR
July 23, 1923 - March 12, 2025
Juanita Jo Adams Hinkle of Mountain View, Arkansas, passed away
peacefully on Wednesday, March 12, surrounded by family. She was 101
years old.
Born to Henry Floyd Adams and Dora Stevens Adams in Herpel, AR on July
23, 1923, Juanita was the older sibling to a sister and brother, Omega
and Sonny. Juanita lived in Oklahoma, Texas, and California before
returning to Arkansas to marry Alvis C Hinkle.
Juanita and AC Hinkle were married on May 10, 1946, and lived together
for 33 years until his death in 1979. They had two daughters, Marilyn
Ann and Carolyn Kay. Their life together in Mountain View was grounded
by a loving involvement at Flatwoods Baptist Church, where at the time
of her death, Juanita was the oldest and longest serving member.
Juanita was tremendously gracious-the epitome of a hospitable Southern
woman. She was legendary for her talent at 42 dominoes and for her
ability to subsist on chocolate and Dr. Pepper. She served her church
and her community, but most of all, her family.
Preceding her in death are husband, AC Hinkle; sister, Omega Adams Ruby;
and brother, Henry Floyd Adams, Jr.
She is survived by daughters Ann Hinkle (Bob) Bridges and Kay Hinkle (Robert) Roberts; grandson Matthew (Ann) Bridges; granddaughter Amy Bridges; great grandchildren Nathan and Madeleine Bridges; and an entire community of extended family who loved their Grandma Neat.
Visitation will be Sunday, March 16 at Flatwoods Baptist Church at 1:00.
The service will follow at 2 p.m..
Memorial donations in Juanita's name can be made to Flatwoods Church
Mission Fund at 2709 East Main Street, Mountain View, Arkansas 72560.

She was the best!! She taught me about Jesus in Sunday School and also ministered to me in my teen years. God placed her in my life at just the right time. Loved her dearly.

Ms Juanita came to mean so much to me. She was spunky and spoke her mind and at the same time so compassionate and caring . Always worried if everyone had what they needed or who she could help . It has been an honor getting to love her and know her . She taught me so much more than I could ever write here. I am praying for the entire family and am grateful for you all.

Mrs. Juanita was such a kind hearted lady. Several yesrs ago she told me about some of my kin that lived in the Herpel area many years ago. I wish I'd taken notes. May the comforting arms of God bring you peace and smiles as you celebrate her life and deal with the loss of her presence in your life.

Among the many blessings of living in Mountain View and of serving in Flatwoods Baptist Church was knowing and spending time with this dear lady! Always there, always serving, a big part of “The Live Wires,” Juanita was the living picture of Christianity! She was always so kind to all of our family.
Heaven is definitely sounding sweeter now that Juanita Hinkle is there!
Love and much respect for this Lady.
Prayers for peace and comfort for all her family…

Dear Kay , Ann and family,
We were so sad to receive Kay’s text “ Mom just Passed”. Neat was just that, she was really a Neat person. Our hearts will be so lonesome for this precious woman. She certainly did not look 101 years old as everyone can see from her picture you selected. One of the most beautiful and kind ladies we were blessed to know.
Thank you Lord for bringing her and her family in our lives.
Our prayers are with all of you.
Keith & Sonja.
