Juanita Ruth (Nita) Cauble

Juanita Ruth (Nita) Cauble, 82, of Munford, Tenn., and formerly of Anna-Jonesboro, died at 8:33 p.m. Sunday, June 16, 2019, at home in Munford. 

She was born in Tamms, the daughter of Jesse Loren and Emma Webb Dillman, in 1936. The entire family was loving and talented; their home was the place to be for local kids to come and have good, clean, Christian fun. Money was tight, but love was always in plenty.

Nita met Bennie Cauble in high school and later married him in 1957. They raised a family and she supported her husband and children in every way possible. 

She was a quiet woman, but she was also incredibly strong: she survived colon cancer at the age of 45. Nita was a Godly woman and passed the best parts of herself to her entire family. 

She is survived by her daughters, Lisa Cauble of Marion and Beth Cauble Bursi (Chuck) of Brighton, Tenn.; grandsons Jordan, Dustin and Dalton Munoz; great-grandsons Jace and Elias Munoz; siblings Larry Dillman (Linda) of Cape Girardeau, Colleen Langendoerfer (Rodger) of Colorado Springs, Colo., and Rebecca Williams (Bob) of Rochelle; a sister-in-law, Shirley Cauble of Marion; and so many loving nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents; siblings, Ferry Hopkins, Katie Haney and Marcy Copeland; and her husband of 59 years, Bennie Leroy Cauble. 

Her family says they know she is happy in Heaven with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and is reunited with the love of her life, Ben Cauble.
