Juliana Juarez
Martinez
On November 4, 2017,
Juliana passed away peacefully at the age of 97 surrounded by family in
Edmonton, AB.
She was predeceased by
her great grandson, Daniel. “Mama Julie” will be lovingly remembered by her
daughter Zoila (Cesar); brother Victor (Juana); grandchildren Graciela (Rene),
Heleman (Daisy), Cesar (Heather), Wendy (Jose), Michael (Tanis);
great-grandchildren Alexandra, Stephanie (Alex), Cristian (Aimee), Caitlan,
Isaac, Nicole, Carlos, Isaiah, Julia, Ame, Madison, Danica, and Ryen;
great-great grandchildren Jayda, Jaxon, Abigail, Olivia, Mila and Sienna; and
her extended family and friends.
Juliana was born in
Jalapa, Guatemala on April 2, 1920 and was the fifth of seven
siblings. In 1947 Juliana moved her and her daughter from Jalapa to Guatemala
City, where she worked as the housing manager for the Secretary of the United
States consulate until she joined her daughter and family in Toronto, Canada in
July of 1975. Then in 1982, moved with her family to Fort McMurray, AB, where
she lived until she moved Rochester, AB. She loved spending time with all her
family; therefore, also lived in Edmonton, Jasper,
Medicine Hat and Calgary . Even though she was a tiny woman, what she
lacked in height she made up in spunk and she did not allow the language
barrier keep her from living life. Juliana loved to cook and enjoyed
spending many hours in the kitchen and when you didn’t find her in the kitchen,
you would find her in the garden tending to her vegetables and flowers. She
also enjoyed travelling and she travelled to Guatemala, Mexico, USA, and travel
across Canada from Quebec to British Colombia.
The family would like
to thank the kind staff at Shepherd’s Care Kensington for their wonderful care.
A Celebration of Life
will be held on Saturday, November 18, 2017 at 2:00pm at the Westlawn Funeral
Home & Cemetery which is located at 16310 Stony Plain Road NW, Edmonton,
AB.
