Juanita Sarah Mignonette Ellis Wright Hulin, age 94, left this earth to be with Jesus and many loved ones in heaven on February 24, 2018 in Fairview, Oklahoma.

From her birth on October 20, 1923, until her death, she nourished people around her with love and strong faith. Juanita was born on her grandmother's farm south of Isabella to John Henry Ellis and Myrtle Gladys (Reames) Ellis. She was the oldest of five children.

Juanita attended Isabella School until the 8 ^th grade, then to Okeene High School and later to Fairview High School, where she graduated in 1941.

On April 14, 1942 she married Willis (Bill) Hamble Wright. To that marriage three children were born, reared, and loved: Cheryl (Wright) Hasty, Gary Wright and Cindy (Wright) Lyon. After Bill's service to his country in the Army Air Corp, the couple made their home in Isabella. Juanita was a loving homemaker and devoted wife and mother. In the late 1970's she began working as a bookkeeper at Buchanan's Nursing Home in Okeene. After her retirement, she and Bill enjoyed traveling and fishing with family and friends at Port Aransas, Texas. They enjoyed their love and life together until Bill's death in 1996.

On March 14, 2001, Juanita married Coy Hulin. Coy put a spark in Juanita's eyes and she found love and happiness again. Her children teased that they needed to make a noise before entering a room or they might catch them "smooching". This warmed her children's hearts to see mom happy again. As a couple they traveled the country, Coy taking Juanita to places that she had not been before. Their favorite traveling couple was Juanita's sister, Winona and her husband, Rob. They shared many joyful adventures traveling together. Coy and Juanita made their home in Isabella until moving to Canton Lake. As a couple they enjoyed their fishing boat, but Juanita was always a bit nervous on the water and would repeatedly say that she "swam like a rock". After her declining health they moved to the Fairview Fellowship Home Apartments, where they enjoyed the company of many old and new friends.

Juanita is survived by her husband, Coy Dean Hulin, sister Winona Velma Ruth Ellis (Rob) Ensminger, daughters Cheryl Anese (Bill) Hasty of Fairview and Cynthia Denise (David) Lyon of Sapulpa, son Gary Hamble Wright (Cindy) of Edmond, step-daughters Casey (Mike) Stoner of Ashton, ID, and Rikki (David) Oberdoester of OKC, sisters-in-law Marie Black and Sylvia Wright of Fairview, and Judy Ellis of Bengal, 13 grandchildren, 25 great grandchildren and many, many loving nieces, nephews and friends.

Juanita was preceded in death by parents, John and Myrtle Ellis, brothers Molten Henry (Bud) Ellis, James Ira Ellis, infant sister Corinne Lavonne, and step-daughter Dana Jeannie Stout.

Memorial can be made to the Isabella Church of the Nazarene with Fairview Funeral Home acting as custodian.
