Marshall, Val, Vic, I meant your beautiful family 40 years ago when your kind, generous, loving Mom walked into my life. She loved her "boys" so much and the pride she felt being your wife & mother was shared with everyone that she spoke with. She touched many lives and if you were blessed to be one of them, your life will never be the same. Juanita was a breath of fresh air and this world was a better place because she was a part of it. I am praying for all of you that you will feel her sweet spirit everyday. Love to all of you

I had the pleasure of meeting and knowing Juanita through the downtown branch of what was then First Security Bank. What a special and precious lady! She would always greet you with a friendly hello, a big smile and a warm inviting hug if she wasn't separated from you by a work space counter. She was a warm, caring lady and always found a way to add humor and laughter to your conversations. My thoughts and prayers are with Marshall and family. She is now free from pain and busy entertaining everyone as Doc Tweedles and making her wonderful balloon animals.

My sincerest sympathies for the loss of this wonderful lady. I feel very privileged to have worked with Juanita, to have known her, shared moments with her and most importantly to have laughed with her. I know that my life has been blessed by having her in it. This world has lost a beautiful soul.

She was always smiling. As a young police officer, it was always nice to see Mrs. Brisbin in and around the police station. She was a great lady. Chief Brisbin, Val and Vic and families, we are sorry for your loss.

As I read the comments here, I am getting teary-eyed. What a wonderful, beautiful lady, wife and mother! You are so blessed to have had her in your life. Unfortunately, I didn't know Juanita. My acquaintance is through Marshall and my personal loss. Although you will miss her earthly presence, you will carry many ever-lasting memories. I offer my deepest and most sincere sympathy. May God be with you and comfort you.

So sorry to hear about Juanita's passing. She was always a bright spot in my day whenever we met, usually at the bank downtown. I know the struggle you all have gone through as my wife spent the last year with the same battle. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

To the Brisbin Family:

Words aren't enough, to describe the love and admiration, I have for my 'Momma B'.
She was a extraordinary soul! She tugged at your heart strings, when she gave you her love and famous ((HUGS)). She lived her life with lots of laughter!
She gave her heart and soul into everything she did.
She was such a strong woman and was loved by so many!

Her infectious laugh and enthusiasm for life was very prominent.
Making OTHERS smile..was her specialty.
She loved her family & friends, more than the world itself! And if you were a part of it (weather biologically or otherwise), consider yourself extremely blessed!

She spent her life helping others and giving herself selflessly!
Marshall was her rock. Her Sons, her stepping stones. And her grandchildren/ great grandchildren.. her pebbles of her legacy!

I am a better person, for having her in my life, so many years.
She was my friend, and so much more. <3 I will miss her tremendously, but happy she is now at peace!

So be happy, smile and do kind deeds to one another....it's what you will be remembered for in the end!

Tears and prayers are flowing for your family. Juanita worked with my Mom and was considered a dear friend. Mom went to be with the Lord last year in February. I'm sure the two of them are having a great reunion. Carry Juanita's love for each of you in your hearts. She was a great lady.

Juanita was a treasure to the Nampa Civic Center as a member of the Auxiliary. She was a great clown at Community Fun Night. I really enjoyed working with her in bringing arts and entertainment to the community. Marshall.... you are the salt of the Earth. Sorry to hear of Juanita's passing.

She called me her "other son," and I called her "Mom." She was quick to offer a big hug, a hearty laugh, and words of encouragement. She came to many of my comedy magic shows, and she was the best audience member EVER! She was, quite simply, an incredible person who was a ray of sunshine that lit up every room she entered and a great big ol' smile on every face in that room. She will be greatly missed. I'm praying that the God of all comfort will envelope the hearts and minds of her family and friends in His love during this difficult time. Much love to all of you.
