Juanita was known for her vibrant spirit and her passion for being outdoors. In fact, she loved being outdoors so much that she found joy in mowing her own property that she mowed it till she was 92 years old. She cherished vacations to Colorado and found joy in spending time with her family, cooking, and feeding anyone who came into her home. Her interests extended to reading and genealogy, activities that brought her immense satisfaction and connection to her roots.

Above all, Juanita was immensely proud of her children and grandchildren, who were her greatest accomplishments. She leaves behind her loving son, Dewayne Meeks and his wife, Cindy, of Chouteau, OK, and her daughter, Dorothy Smith and her husband, Mike, also of Chouteau, OK.

In addition, she welcomed three great-great-grandchildren, Everleigh, Oaklee, and Leo, into her life, further deepening her legacy of love. Also surviving her are her sisters Susie Jeffery and Judy Moore, a special nephew Rick Lloyd, and many other special nieces and nephews.

Juanita was preceded in death by her parents Charley and Lily Lloyd, her husband, Jack Meeks, and her beloved children, Debbie Ackley, Dannie Meeks, and Darell Meeks. She also mourned the loss of her grandson, Jackie Darell Steffens, granddaughter, Kristen Meeks, and grandson, Kristopher Meeks.
