Genes Johnson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by George Lopes Funeral Home - Mattapan on Jan. 26, 2024.
Genesis Samarra Johnson made her transition to heaven on Monday, January 22nd, 2024. Her life's journey began on October 1st, 2007, in Sacramento, California. She was the daughter of Lamarra and Demontre Johnson. The sister to Derek Mathis, Curtis Mathis, Jade Johnson, and Kaedyn Cutts. Auntie to Jacob and Aavya Mathis. She loved her teachers and classmates at the Joseph Lee and McCormick High School. Her favorite way of showing her love was gifting them every holiday to make them feel special. That's what she did, made people feel loved and special. She was amazing at taking care of her nephew, she loved being there for him and doing whatever was needed to make sure he was okay. Her best friend was her mother, the yin to her yang. She loved being by her side whether it was to go shopping, watch movies, get her siblings in order, or just relaxing in the living room. She adored her big brothers, cared for her younger siblings, and loved all those around her. She leaves behind her mother, father, siblings, nephew, and niece.

Even though I never spoke to Genes but I LOVED seeing her incurrage students to get on there busses and seeing her put smiles on their faces I also loved how she had so much energy everyday and she always made me smile or laugh whenever I'm having a bad day everytime i seen her. And now that she's not here it's been quiet and weird not seeing her around. GENES'S FAMILY IM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS HOPE YALL ARE DOING OKAY!!!

Genes was a beautiful, loving, kind soul. She was my little assistant at school, everyday all day at school she would say to me, "I gotch you, Ms Kari" and she did. I was recently sick a few weeks back and Genes was so concerned for me that I received a few messages with her saying "I'm lost without Ms Kari and I don't what to do when she's not here". That was my Genes now I am lost without her.
To Genes family i am so terribly sorry for your loss...you raised an amazing young lady who touched so many of us.
