Juan was a devoted Deacon at Bethany Apostolic Church for sixteen years. He loved taking care of his Bishop and the church. The word "Deacon Indeed" was floating around. He cherished his wife, Marlo Brooks of 30 years, whom he called his "Queen", and she called him her "Lord". They enjoyed sitting on the porch enjoying the weather and talking about each other's day. Juan reeled Marlo into liking fishing, which they did often. Juan also enjoyed fishing on the river with his fishing pal, Darryl Cheatem. Juan didn't mind sharing his wisdom and knowledge. He was kind but stern and didn't mind stirring the spoon with a few jokes, His newest enjoyment was opening the church on Thursday prayer night and visiting the sick at the nursing home.

Lamentations 3:22-25
Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed, for his compassion never fails. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion therefore I will wait for him." The Lord is good to those who hope is in him, to the one who seeks him.
