Donna Pope Obituary

Mrs. Donna Lynn Pope, of Powder Springs, Georgia passed on Sunday, September 28th, 2025. A Memorial Visitation for Mrs. Pope will be held on Saturday, October 11th from 11:00 AM until 1:30 PM at the Macland Chapel of Mayes Ward Dobbins. Donna's family was the heart of her life, and she was happiest when surrounded by those she loved most. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend; she poured her love into every relationship. Her heart as a mother and grandmother was endless, and her doors were always open to anyone and everyone. Beyond her family, Donna also gave her care and dedication to Cobb County Schools for over twenty years, where she served first as a school bus driver and then as a Field Coordinator. She took pride in caring for her family, at home and at work, and always went the extra mile for those around her. Donna found peace and enjoyment in traveling (especially to the beach), loving on her dogs, tending to her plants, and watching her hummingbirds on the front porch. She loved the holidays, with Christmas being her favorite- a season where her generosity and love for family shone the brightest. She will be remembered not only for her kindness and warmth, but also for her fun-loving spirit that brought laughter and joy to those around her. Donna truly left a lasting mark on everyone she met, and though she is gone, her memory remains a part of each of our lives. Mrs. Pope is survived by her husband, Mr. William "Bill" Johnson, her children; Benjamin Pope (Elena), Kayla Reagh (Matt), Hannah Walker, Joshua Johnson (Felicia), and Cody Johnson (Meagan) grandchildren; Joseph Treccia, Madison Pope, Teagan Pope, Karson Peckham, Kelsie Johnson, Mason Johnson, and Lucas Johnson. Many other friends and relatives also survive.
