Joan Elaine Johnson

Joan Johnson, age 65, passed away on July 9, 2025. Born on February 9, 1960, Joan was a devoted mother, proud grandmother, and a woman who found joy in life’s simple and beautiful moments.

She deeply loved her son, John, and her greatest pride came from being a grandmother. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she cherished every moment spent with them.

Joan had a strong appreciation for the outdoors. She enjoyed spending time in nature, often with a camera in hand, capturing the beauty around her—especially flowers, animals, and peaceful landscapes. Her garden was one of her favorite places, where she lovingly tended to her flowers. She also had a special bond with her dogs, who brought her comfort and companionship throughout the years.

Joan will be remembered for her warm heart, creative spirit, and the deep love she had for her family.
