Juanita M. Duckworth was born June 4, 1933 in Long Beach, California. She was primarily raised in San Lucas, California but spent the last 60 years in San Ardo, California.

Juanita was a homemaker and once her girls were grown she enjoyed raising her birds. Her favorites were the doves and finches, but on occasion she would raise black birds who had fallen out of their nests. She enjoyed gardening and the harvest of that labor.

She passed away on February 7, 2020. She is preceded in death by her husband Leonard Duckworth. They were married for 65 years.  She is survived by her four girls, Debbie, Susan, Vickie, and Cathy; seven grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. She has a sister, Lois Cattanach of Oregon and a brother, William Lawton.

She was known as mom, grandma, aunt Nita, sister and a friend to many. She will be missed.

Per Juanita's request, no services will be held.
