She was born December 26, 1927, in Greensboro, North Carolina, to Cora Evans and Eugene Whitfield, and moved to Toledo at a young age.

Surviving are her grandchildren, Darryin Jones, Erickka Jones, Leslie Griffin, An'twon Griffin, Eddie Palmer Jr., and Consuela Palmer; Tim Horning, who was like a son to her; her cousin and dear friend, Renaye Reid; Tobina Vines and Relana Reid; along with many great-grandchildren, extended family members, and friends.

Mrs. Johnson donated her body to the University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences. There will be no visitation or services in accordance with her wishes.
