Mary Ellen Juett, the daughter of Robert and Barbara (McElwee) McNeer, was born on January 22nd, 1945, in Des Moines Iowa. She spent most of her years growing up in Newton and attended The Hammer Country School and later, Newton Senior High School. She graduated from Newton Sr. High in 1964.

Mary was united in marriage with Monte Juett on June 4th, 1966 at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Newton. Mary was a lifelong member of Sacred Heart Church and was very devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mary worked at Thorp Credit, was an accomplished Avon Representative for many years and a compassionate in- home caregiver for so many in the Newton community. Mary cared deeply for all those she assisted. She felt it was her calling to help others and this was one of her true joys in life. Mary was in every way a wonderful homemaker. She was such a kind, thoughtful and nurturing Wife and Mother. Mary lived a life abounding with love, laughter and sillyness with her many brothers, two sisters, in-laws, nieces, nephews and cousins. Mary's love for her grandchildren was immeasurable. They were her whole heart. She did so much for many, and the absence of our "quiet giant" will be felt by all those fortunate to have Mary in their life.

Mary entered into heaven, at the age of 70, on Tuesday, April 14th, at Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines, Iowa. She was preceded in death by her husband, Monte Juett, parents, Robert and Barbara (McElwee) McNeer, brother, Robert McNeer, his wife, Rose Anne McNeer, sister, Patricia (McNeer) Woody, her husband, Delmar Woody, sister in law, Betty McNeer, Sister in law, Mary McNeer, two grand children, (Brenna Kathleen McFadden), Mary's Mother and Father in-law, Victor and Marge Juett, and Monte's mother, Shirley (Riepe) Juett.
