Debora, I found her Social Security Death Index entry & several obituaries on Ancestry.com - she was born 12 Feb 1924, died 7 Feb 2004 at Dowagiac, Cass Co., Michigan. She was living in Oklahoma when she applied for SS benefits.
The Dowagiac Daily News has a death notice for her in the 10 Feb issue. She died at the Dowagiac Nursing Home & McLauchlin-Clarke Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements.
The Niles, MI, Daily Star had this obit:
Juanita Marie Selent / Feb. 13, 1924-Feb. 12, 2004
Juanita Marie Selent, 79, of Dowagiac, died Saturday, Feb. 7, 2004, at Dowagiac Nursing Home.

Her family will receive friends from noon until 1 p.m. Thursday. Interment will be at Mission Hills Memorial Gardens.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions will be accepted at the funeral home.
