My condolences and prayers for the family: Jan, Mike, Bruce & Susie. I think I have known Ms. Juanita all my life (well, at least since I was 5). I grew up at Calvary CME and have many memories of her late husband, Rev. Gibson, Ms Juanita and the "kids." The last time I saw her was at a funeral (it might have been Uncle Wilber?). God Bless you all and may you find comfort in the beautiful memories you have of her. It is a blessing to have your mother as long as God allows it - you know I know. She lives in each of you! God Bless.

Mother Gibson was truly a woman of faith! Fiercely loyal to her family, husband, church and everyone - especially us kids - in Painesville!! A supporter of civil rights, access education, and equal opportunity for all (e.g., her early support and work with the local NAACP) you HAD to respect, admire, seek out and love "Ms. Juanita!" How many of us did she nurture, guide and counsel? And I think about her kindness and sweet smile all the days I knew her! May the family be comforted in knowing this wonderful woman of God is at peace with our Lord, who she taught so many about in Sunday School. ....find consolation in these words. Dr. Marc Smith
