Virginia Johnson Obituary
Virginia Mae Johnson, age 94, of Carrollton, passed away at Senior Suites at Century Farm on Thursday, March 30, 2023. Virginia was born in Akron, Ohio on August 13, 1928, to Samuel Dane and Mary Caroline (Galleher) Pritts.
Virginia attended the Great Trail Community Church of God. She was passionate about watching NASCAR. She enjoyed the Dallas Cowboys, Cleveland Guardians, and the Cleveland Cavaliers. She loved to play triominos and she cheated. She watched game shows and was an alligator hunter, for real. Christmas was always special, and she enjoyed spending time together with the family. She loved spending time with the grandchildren at the beach and Wet & Wild. Her final message to Pastor Jim was “Save the last dance for me.”
Virginia is survived by two daughters: Carolyn (William) Cooper of Malvern and Marguerite (Rex) Cooper of Avon Lake; a son, Frederick (Darlene) Johnson of Hartville; seven grandchildren; fourteen great-grandchildren; three great-great grandchildren; three sisters: Lynda (Nick) Nicholas of Inverness FL, Patricia Thomas of Austin TX, and Evelyn Garrett of Oxford FL; and a Sister-in-law, Martha Pritts of Barberton.
In addition to her parents, Virginia was preceded in death by her husband, Marion Lee Johnson; a brother, William Pritts; and a sister, Mary Elizabeth Heffelfinger.
Celebration of Life Service will be held at Great Trail Community Church of God, 620 East Line Street, Minerva, Ohio, on Saturday, April 8, 2023, at 2:00 PM with Rev. James Roma officiating.

Will always remember the trips to your place in Leesburg and spending the night. I note in your tribute you even make people laugh as you enter heaven. We will see you on the other side.
With Love,

Tears of sadness knowing I can never again talk to Aunt Sis or see her beautiful smile. Yet, tears of joy knowing she was met at heaven's gate by family and friends waiting for her. Aunt Sis will always be remembered for her love of family, sense of humor and zest for life.
