Juanita Kyle, age 89, was born on May 15, 1926 in Knoxville, TN., to the late Harold and Delphia Roper. She entered into eternal rest on Saturday, January 30, and went home to be with the Lord. She was a faithful member of CEC. Ms. Kyle was a lover of life and was a humble servant of the Lord and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Serving on the Deaconess Board, singing in the choir, participating in SALT Ministry, and being an active member of the Single’s Ministry, are just examples of the active life she led before her health failed her.

She was a loving person who loved to travel and fellowship. Juanita was a caring mother, aunt, sister, and grandmother who will be missed by all who knew her and loved her.
