Juanita Mae Leonard, 59, of Chesapeake Beach, MD passed away at her home Thursday, August 27, 2020. Juanita was born March 15, 1961 in Cheverly, MD to Stanley and Naomi (Messineo) Leonard. She was raised in Capitol Heights, but has called Calvert County home for the past 20+ years. Here, she received her diploma, and kept a warm and loving home for her children and grandchildren. As a woman of simple pleasures, Juanita enjoyed a strong cup of coffee, cooking, and spending quality time with her family, especially her grandchildren. “Momma” or “Ma” to her children, “Nana” to her grandbabies, and “Nita” to friends and family, she was known for making you feel at home and never let you leave hungry. She never had much to give, but she would give all she had. She was a true human being and left a legacy of warmth and love for all who knew her.

Juanita is survived by her: son Robert (Bobby) White, and wife Jessica, with grandchildren Jersi, Sonny, and Naomi; daughter Reina Andujar, with grandchildren Nicholas and Camilla; son Dominic Andujar; and son Jeremiah Long, with granddaughters Averyanna and Nevaeh; all of Chesapeake Beach, MD. She is also survived by her: brother Stanley Leonard Jr, and wife Darlene, of North Beach; brother Calvin Leonard, and wife Judy, of Deale; brother Richard Leonard, and wife Beth, of Upper Marlboro; sister Lisa (Leonard) McDonald, and husband Ricky, of Chesapeake Beach; brother Bryan Leonard, and wife Stacie, of Golden Beach; and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. She was preceded in death by her brother Ralph Louis Leonard, daughter Christina Marie Andujar, and granddaughter Amelia Rose White.
