Juanita Jack Davidson was born Juanita Camilitta Jack to the late Charles and Exelie Jack in the beautiful island of St Vincent the Grenadines. She was the third child of six children to her parents. The family moved to the island of Trinidad while Juanita was very young. Juanita received her early education in Trinidad.

She was raised as a Christian by her parents and was often called upon to read the Bible to her father, Charles Jack. Juanita migrated to the United States 54 years ago for a better life. Her daughter Charmaine joined her shortly after.

Juanita loved her family. That love was clearly demonstrated when she extended her hand and her home to all her siblings, her nieces and nephews to join her in the United States.

She was employed by the greater New York bank where she worked as a phlebotomist and later, a preceptor. Training students in phlebotomy. She loved her job as she loved people.

Juanita would often extend a helping hand To the homeless by making sandwiches to feed the homeless in the subway on her way to work. Juanita was affectionately known as Nana by her grandson Richard. The name NANA quickly became the name used by her family and church members.

She often visited Solid Rock and Living Rock Christian center and became friends with pastor Dennis Cook and his church family.

Nana/ Juanita loved the Lord. Her faith was very strong. That faith was solidified after she battled stage 4 colon cancer in 2003 and overcame her illness by the grace of God. She would often tell her physicians after a checkup that her God healed her and not the medication.

Her love for reading the Bible and teaching the word of God to her daughter and her two grandchildren was paramount.
