She was as hard-working, loving and as dedicated as they come.
Mrs. Johnson is survived by: Daughter, Deborah Johnson-Russell; grandson, Trenton Hutchison; granddaughters, Lacy Russell, and Marissa Johnson; great-grandchildren, Colby Goins, Braxton Hackworth, Launa Grace Hackworth, and Luke Hackworth.
