She was married to Conston Scott and from that union three children were born. She later married Billy Houston and formed a blended family of 7 children.  Juanita worked for the majority of her adult life providing care for the elderly in nursing homes.  Juanita was passionate about spending time with her husband, children, grandchildren as well as other family members.
