LaShawana Johnson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 3, 2001.
For the Children
Lashawana Johnson's name was the stuff of family legend. When her mother sat down to print the name on her birth certificate, she inadvertently inserted an "a" between the "w" and the "n." Spelled "Lashawana" but pronounced "Lashawna," the name was a constant source of confusion to people.

Not that Ms. Johnson, 27, minded. She extended the same consideration to co- workers and strangers that she showed to her three children, whose photographs lined her cubicle on the 83rd floor of 1 World Trade Center, where she worked as a customer service manager for General Telecom. A single mother to 7-year-old Jade Ashley, 5-year-old Jerrard Maurice and 2- year-old Jordan Timothy, Ms. Johnson spent most of her free time either with her kids or devising ways to surprise them.

"Many times, she would come in with packages from the World Trade Center mall — shirts, blouses, pants, outfits — all for those kids," said Willie Borrero, who worked with Ms. Johnson.

To support her family, Ms. Johnson, who lived in East New York, Brooklyn, awoke at 4 a.m., got her kids dressed and off to the sitter's by 5:30 a.m., and often arrived at her office in time to see the sun rise. On weekends, she was up early and out the door with her children again. "She made sure that every weekend they were very active," said Ms. Johnson's mother, Lois Johnson. "They never stayed home."

Asking that you continue to smile down on us and share some light, as times have been very hard and unpredictable lately. Faith and motivation is what keeps me going, and the ability to inspire others. Please know that you're never forgotten, and will always be a part of our family. You are missed and you are loved!

Hi Princess,

Time goes by fast as we face another year and a negative memory of when you were taken away from us. You're still alive and well in my memory, and many others i'm sure. You are missed and loved, also respected for your dedication as a friend and as a parent to your children. I miss your smile and just being able to catch up with you. Continue to rest in peace, and keep an eye on us as we try to make a difference in this world that we live in. Times have changed like you wouldn't believe, but you can rest assure that some of us old school folks like myself will do what we need to in order for peace, respect and structure to continue to exist. Until I see you again...... Miss you, love you.

Mommy & I on my 1st birthday

Jade Whiteside

September 10, 2012

Okay so I've really be dreading this day & it took me up until last week to realize this would be my first time away from home. It's been 11 years since you've been out of my life & I just want you to know that each year only becomes harder. With a new age and a new experience within my life I wish you could of been here to help with and be apart of. I wish you would of been there to see me go to prom, I wish you would of been there to see me accept my HS diploma from BHSA, I wish you could of been there to send me off to college. I wish you would of been here to talk to when I reach my many breaking points, but your not. I often feel like I'm alone & there is only a void my mother can feel, you may not be here physically, but I know that your here spiritually, I miss you dearly & would do anything for you to be here with us again. It may be the 11th year you've been gone, but I also look at it as another year closer to being with you again. MOMMY I LOVE YOU & CONTINUE TO REST IN PEACE!

your name at the 9/11 Memorial

Jade Whiteside

November 28, 2011

Hello Mommy,
I hoped you enjoyed your birthday as well as your Thanksgiving. It seems like the older I become the more I wish you were still apart of my life. There are so many things I need help on & advice on, and only your help would make things better. Unforgettably that will never happen. This past weekend Jerard, Jordan, Tisha & Grandma Delphine went to visit the 9/11 Memorial in Manhattan. Being on the exact grounds where you took your last breathe was kind of bittersweet. Looking at your name on that stone & the whole where your building once stone made me wanna cry so bad, but I held it all in. I know your presence was there when we all were there, however I wish you would of been there with us physically. I have school in a few hours, so I'm gonna wish you good night & I'll be back to visit soon.

it always warms my heart to speak your name... i always remember growing up with you and tish and tawana and tamika, the closest role models in my early life as some of the most fun ive ever had.. though i never got to meet my little cousins im sure they are what you are... good role models, funny, kind, genuinely cool people and that's how i remember you. when i look at my arm, sometimes the heavy memories comeback hard when i think of the losses our family has shared... so while we have lost a piece of our heart. im overwhelmed with the faith that we have gained an angel... with a heavy heart...

I pray for your soul everyday and now you and your mom together again in heaven. P.S. you will be soo proud of Jade, she has become such a beautiful and talented young woman..she looks just like you lol. Love Cuz Tisha

Karlletha Johnson

September 11, 2011

Wow Lashawna I can hardly believe that 10 years has gone by since I last saw you. I can still remember our phone conversation just the day before. You were making plans for my birthday just a few days later. There is so much that has happened since that day and I wish you were here so I could share it with you. You would be so very proud of Jade she's a high school senior and is a very talented young lady. I pray everyday for your childrens strength to go on as well as to Tawanna and Alex. It's never easy losing someone that you love especially when there life was cut way too soon before there time. Well Shawna I could go on and on about how much you are missed by many,but just know you are truly an angel and I will always love you my sister.

Ricardo Phipps

September 11, 2011

Hi Shawna,

10 years later and the tears still flow as if it was yesterday. God bless you and your family. I hear that your children are growing fast and beautiful just like you.

You are missed, you are loved and it is an honor to still be able to share you with the world.

Please continue to watch over us all as we navigate through this unpredictable world.

Talk to you soon.

Love Rich

Jade Whiteside

September 10, 2011

So the day is finally here, it's been 10 years since if you've been gone. I think as the years go by I get stronger & stronger but that never seems to happen. Here I am crying my eyes out & I promised myself that I would be fine today. However that just seems to be impossible right about now. I just want you to know that I love you so much & every single day I wish you were still apart of my life. Here I am in my senior year & your not gonna be here to see me physically go off to prom or graduate. There is not a minute that goes by that I don't ask God why did you have to go. I wish I would have seen you this day 10 years ago. Even if I didn't say goodbye, just seeing your face one last time before you went off to work would of been just enough to me. At this moment I'm at a lost for words so all I can say is I love you and miss you so much and really wish you were here.

Love forever & a day your daughter.

In Southington,CT, townspeople are honoring those lost on 9/11 by writing a name on a star. On the back of each star, we are writing a good deed that we are doing in honor of the person who was lost. These stars will be presented at a townwide ceremony on 9/11/2011.
I, personally, did not know Lashawana, but I wish that I did. Because we share the same last name, I have sought out information about her, and the children that she left behind. She is a woman to be admired. Now that I know of her, I pray for her and her children.

Hey there Sunshine....There truly is never a day that goes by that I don't think about you. It will soon be 10 years since you left us but your spirit continues to be bestowed upon us. I miss you so much but I know that you are okay. I still have a hard time and often still question God as to why you???? But I've come to grips with never knowing why. Well as I told you before I reconnected with Jade. Shawna she is a true beauty she looks so much like you and is just as talented as you were. She sings and writes songs. Our girl just took her high school graduation pics and when I saw them I began to cry because I thought of you and how you would be so proud. Jerard and Jordan are growing up so nice. I don't have much contact with them but Jade tells me they are doing well. I just wanted to talk and catch up with my BFF. May your beautiful spirit continue to touch and bless our lives. I will always Love You!!!!

I knew you because both our children were kept by Maria Brown. Your children were younger then mine but since I lived in Maria's building I run into you and spoke to you quite often. We commented on the growth of your respective children. You were a very sweet young woman. I saw your children and Maria the day the Towers fell and Maria told me that everyone was looking for you because you were in the Towers. I was stunned and my children and I began praying for you. Since that moment I've felt the personal tragedy of loosing someone in those buildings. I will never get over it and will never forget you. May God bless your soul, the beautiful children that you left behind, your family and friends. I will always keep you in my heart.

For the family of Lashawana for so long Ive wanted to say something to you all. I never knew this existed, I met Lashawana in ENY where I too used to live before that terrible day. My wish is that all of her children are well, which Im sure they are and that God will continually bless her entire family in her abscence. I witnessed her faith and Im sure that she is watching and taking care of you all from her heavenly seat.

Hi Lashawana,

I just want you to know that I miss you very much. I hope that your family is well, as they live to carry on your memory. I wish that we could turn back the hands of time and see your smiling face in person at least one more time. I was just talking about you with the Johnson Family, as we all miss you tremendously. My god-daughter Ci-Ci not only carrys your name, she also has your energy and your personality. I know that you will continue to look over us as we strive to keep your name and memory in our hearts and spirits.

I Love You.

Seven years...seems like it was yesterday. I visited ground zero for the first time Nov 2007. Jade and I were together, she wanted me to see your name on the memorial. I was nervous I didn't know how I was going to feel, but I am glad I went. She is growing into a beautiful young lady and the boys are feisty as ever. You are definitely missed and will always be remembered.

Today is grandma's birthday give her a big hug and kiss for me. I miss her so much. I know both of you are in a great place watching over all of us.
