Juanita was born Sept. 12, 1924 in Galbraith to Lovenia Moreau Wise and William Leon Wise, M.D., and passed away Nov. 14, 2016, at Willis Knighton North Medical Center, Shreveport. Juanita met her future husband in 1947 when she was a teacher at Boyce High School and he was a member of the local professional baseball team. Juanita taught the third grade from 1945-1980 and continued her service with the public school system as a substitute teacher until 1989. She sacrificed her life for her family and church. Preceding her in death are her parents, her husband, George H. Lynn, brother, Gary H. Wise Sr., and sister, Wilhelmena Wise, M.D. Left to cherish her beautiful memory is her only child, Dr. Melissa Love Lynn of Shreveport; Dr. Robert Taylor; nephews and nieces: William Jackson (Jackie) and Denise Paul Wise, Gary and Amanda Hart Wise, Rodney Wise, M.D., Antonio Quiros, Renee Prudhome Gresham, Mario Quiros, Joshua and Rachel Fennell Wise and Sophie, Samuel and Christina Easter Wise, McKenzlea and Zowie Wise, Zachary Quiros and Russell Cook Jr. Honoring Juanita as pallbearers will be nephews William Jackson Wise, Gary Wise Jr., Dr. Rodney Wise, Antonio Quiros, Russell Cook Jr., Joshua Wise, Samuel Wise and Zachary Quiros.

We wish to especially thank Willis-Knighton North Medical Center, the kind nurses, respiratory therapists, and Dr. Robert Taylor, Dr. Basel Kasabali, Dr. Randy White, Dr. Stephen Kilpatrick, Dr. Marisa Johnson, Allison Moore, P.A. and her caregiver, Cynthia Williams Lewis, lovingly called “My Angel.” The family suggests memorials may be made to Special Olympics, 1133 19th Street NW, 12th Floor, Washington, DC 20036-3604 which was so dear to her heart. In her later years, Juanita continued to care for her nephew, Mario, in her home and remained active in Special Olympics.
