Juanita Osbun, 87, passed away Thursday, March 26, 2015 at 8:02 AM in Mason Health and Rehabilitation Center, Warsaw, Indiana.
Born June 13, 1927 in Warsaw, Juanita was the daughter of Delmar and Wanda (Tompkins) Evans. She and Stephen Osbun would marry July 5, 1945 in Leesburg, Indiana.
Juanita was a lifetime Warsaw homemaker who also worked at Harvey’s Dime Store and in later years as a greeter for WalMart.
She was a member of the Warsaw Order of the Eastern Star, St. Anne’s Episcopal Church and The Salvation Army Auxiliary. Juanita enjoyed baking and cooking; she was proud of her 4-H Fair championship apple pies. She was a good friend to many as she never knew a stranger.

She loved living at Retired Tigers and especially loved living at Mason’s. She was a good mom who loved her grandchildren and was a wonderful sister.
