She loved her family unconditionally and was a wonderful mother and grandmother, and the best aunt ever. She was an avid Word Search fan and completed 2 – 3 books per week, and she loved her Soap Stories.

The last few years of her life were pretty tough, but she would always say, “It can only get better one day”. She was preceded in death by her husband, Ralph Johnson; her parents: Mama Rose, Ella K. Cole, and Willie J. Cole; infant daughter, Sandra Johnson; son, Joe Johnson; and daughter, Jackie Johnson.
