A longtime Tehachapi resident, Juanita DeWitt (Eyhegaray), passed away in 
the comfort of her daughter’s home on Jan. 13. She had been battling with 
Alzheimer’s for the past several years.

kindergarten and gave piano lessons for many years.

She will always be remembered for her beautiful smile and her kind words.

A memorial service for Juanita will be held at Hillcrest Cemetery in 
Bakersfield on Jan. 17 at 2 p.m.   

Survivors include her two daughters, Janet Maness from Lancaster and Pat 
Goodspeed from Renton, Wash.; seven grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.
