Juanita Elaine Wilson

Born on October 12, 1928, to Iolene and Edward Dennison, Juanita built a life marked by dedication, energy, and enduring family ties. A significant part of her life was her 26-year career with Goodyear Aerospace, where her strong work ethic and steady commitment reflected the care she brought to all she did.

Outside of her work, Juanita embraced the activities she enjoyed most with enthusiasm. She was athletic and a talented bowler, and those pursuits brought enjoyment, activity, and friendly competition to her years. Whether at work, in sport, or in time spent with others, she carried a lively presence that remained memorable to those around her.

Family was an important and constant part of Juanita’s life. She was preceded in death by one sister and five brothers. She is remembered by her daughters, Peggy and husband Chip and Patti and Pam; her four grandchildren, Kelly, Jason, Hollie, and Dana; several great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews, who affectionately knew her as “Aunt Neetie.”

Juanita will be remembered for the life she built, the many years she devoted to her work, the athletic spirit she carried, and the family connections that remained central throughout her life. Her memory continues in the stories, laughter, and love shared by those who knew her.
