Juanita Joan Georgakopoulos (Yaya), age 88, passed away at The Good Shepherd in Ashland after a long battle with Alzheimers. She was born on February 18, 1937, in Mansfield, Ohio, to Philip and Juanita Keller.

Juanita dedicated 64 years of her life to serving others, spending much of her career as a server, with her most recent positions at Adams Rib and Sweeny’s Too. She was known for her kind nature and work ethic, and was loved by her many longtime customers.

A lover of animals, Juanita also cherished the time spent with her family and friends, creating lasting memories and bonds that will not be forgotten. She was deeply devoted to her children, Terri Elaine (Kent) Sayers, Cindi Lee (Lynn) Jones, David Joseph Frontz, Lisa Marie (Roy) Reese, and Tonia Georgakopoulos, as well as her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Juanita is survived by her sisters, Janice Elaine Yarger and Barbara Ann Deal. She was preceded in death by her parents, Philip and Juanita Keller; brothers, Philip Robert Keller and John Franklin Keller; granddaughter, Jenny Frontz; and brother-in-law, Gene Deal.

Juanita will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her legacy of love, kindness, and dedication will live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
