Juanita Marie Little

Juanita Little went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on May 12, 2026. Juanita was born on December 23, 1934, to the late Etieinne Sr. and Clementine Lambert. She was a devoted wife to Gerald “Tiger” Little, the love of her life, for 66 years prior to his passing. She was also a devoted and loving mother to six children. Together, she and Gerald raised their family in St. Amant, LA.

Juanita and Gerald’s love for each other was a constant. She has longed to be reunited with him since his passing, and her love for her family has always been the joy of her life. Her passion was being outdoors tending to her yard and gardening; she truly had a gift for making things grow. Juanita loved company and was always ready to put on a pot of coffee and catch up on everyone’s lives. She loved cooking for her family and sharing it; it brought her great joy to feed you.

Juanita’s faith was always her strength. Her faith and love for her Lord and Savior was steadfast and unwavering; it was lived out daily through her love and care for her family. She never missed an opportunity to share Jesus Christ with everyone she ever met.

She is survived by her daughter, Cynthia Little Fife (Wayne); sons, Randall Little (Maggie), Dale Little (Stacey), Brad Little (Dana), and David Little; and her loving grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Juanita had a joyous reunion in heaven with her husband Gerald, and her youngest son, Dwayne Little. She is also preceded in death by her parents, her twin sister, and five brothers.
