* deceased
Daughter of: * Arthur Allen Bost & * Triece Bost
Born in the area formerly known as " Glass " In the " Triece House ". She spent many happy childhood years at that location, especially at the Old Trieces' Store. Juanita went to work as a young woman at the former Cannon Mills Company, plant one, sewing room for 45 years, until her retirement. She enjoyed her working years and had many lasting friendships there. She was a part of Center Grove Lutheran Church, Kannapolis, almost from birth. In her earlier adult years, she was very active in her church, having served as a Sunday school teacher, church council, Bible school and for many years working with the Girl Scout troop. One of her greatest joys was singing in the church choir. In her later years, this was one thing she really did not want to give up, but poor health set in and she finally yielded and gave up the choir at age 94. Her community activities were many and varied. One of her great loves was serving with the Cooperative Christian Ministries, having served almost since its beginning. She made many, many friends and up until her death, she stayed in touch with many at "the ministry," as she called it. She was also active in many community activities, including the Christian Women's Club, Home Extension and at the Cabarrus County Fair, where she thoroughly enjoyed serving for many years there. She was a wonderful lady, always ready to talk and share herself with her family and to all she came in contact with. She will be greatly missed by her family and friends
