Johnnie Will Langrick

1931 - 2026

DELAND - Johnnie Will Langrick, 94, passed away peacefully Jan. 31, 2026. A graveside service will take place at 11 a.m. Friday, Feb. 13, at Oakdale Cemetery, 800 N. Clara Ave. in DeLand.
Johnnie was born Sept. 13, 1931, in Tattnall County, Georgia.
She was the daughter of a large, loving family, and was one of five children - one brother and three sisters - all of whom preceded her in death.
In July 1950, Johnnie married the love of her life, Herman Langrick, and together they shared 62 years of marriage until his passing in 2012.
Johnnie and Herman built a beautiful life centered around love, faith and family. They were blessed with three children, Steve Langrick and his wife, Michelle Langrick, and two daughters, Linda Sausville and Nancy Harper, who have preceded her in death.
Johnnie's greatest joy was her family, which grew to include five grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren and five great-great-grandchildren.
Johnnie retired after 26 years of dedicated service with Sparton Electronics, where she was known for her hard work and commitment.
She was a woman who cherished life's simple moments - fishing, walking her property, trying her luck at scratch-off tickets, and cheering on her favorite wrestlers were just some of the things that brought her joy. She also had a deep love for people and, together with Herman, was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.
Johnnie's kitchen was often filled with the comforting smells of her famous chicken and rice, chicken and dumplings and, of course, the legendary banana pudding that her family adored. Every meal she cooked carried the unmistakable flavor of love.
Johnnie's presence brought warmth and kindness wherever she went. She will be remembered as a woman of strong faith, boundless compassion and an open heart.
As we mourn her passing, we find comfort in the words of Matthew 11:28: "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Johnnie Will Langrick's life was full of love, laughter and service, and her legacy will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
Allen-Summerhill is in charge.
