She was a hard-working woman and painted the outside of the house when Ernest was unable. She loved doing jigsaw puzzles with the family and did one each day. She had a special place in her heart for “Charlie” the dog. She was preceded in death by her husband of 54 years, Ernest; daughter, Roseann Shea Johnson, and grandson Chad Burgess. She will be lovingly remembered by her children; Sylvia (Marty) DeWitt, Eileen Jakubczak, Cynthia Johnson, Ernest Johnson, Jr., Anita (Steve) Johnson, Tammy (Dave) Skinner, 15 grandchildren; 17 great grandchildren.
