Notes:	Juanita E. Schrader, 92, died peacefully at 11:32 a.m. Thursday April 13, 2023, at Lake City Place in Warsaw, where she had been a resident since December of 2020. She was born in Smith Township, Whitley County, September 19, 1930 and graduated from Columbia City High School in 1948. She was preceded in death by her parents, Everett R. Grable and Winifred (Johnson) Grable, and husbands Robert (Bob) Shroyer and Maurice (Maury) Schrader. Active in church and VBS from a young age, at 12 years old Juanita became the pianist for the First Church of God congregation in Columbia City. Throughout her life she continued as church pianist and organist for the next 60+ years in a number of churches in Indiana and Iowa. Participating in Girl Scouts and 4-H through her early and teen years, Juanita later found joy in oil painting, and added the study and performance of the harp to her musical talents. Over the years, she worked as a secretary and circulation manager at the “Columbia City Post” and “The Commercial Mail” Newspaper. In addition to administrative positions with a local attorney, Juanita worked at Magnavox, Lincoln National Bank, Norwest Bank, and Systematics. Surviving family includes brother Dean Grable, sons Al and Jon Shroyer, six grandchildren, five great grandchildren, two nieces, and a number of great grand nieces, grandnephew, and extended step grandchildren and family.
