Obituary of Juanita Ella Barr

“Lord, when thou see that my work is done, let me not linger on with failing powers, among weary hour a workless worker in a world of work, but with a word,just bid me home and I will come, right gladly yea, right gladly will I come.”

Sister Juanita Barr, the daughter of Mr. David Jones and Orabell Robinson, was born in Newsport News, Virginia on October 11,1956. She was called by God to come live a Heavenly life on March 10,2021 at 6:40 P.M.

Sister Barr was a very genuine spirited person. She was always willing to help in a time of need and most importantly she took care of her Family. While here on Earth, she lived a life full of faith, love, peace and happiness and always seeking God to lead the way.

She came to Little Zion Baptist Church accepting Pastor Davis as her shepherd and baptized in Our Lord Jesus Christ on July of 1990. She was in the Pastor's
