Mrs. Johnson was preceded in death by her parents, Fincher Newton Coody, Sr., and Ruth (Carroll) Coody.

Survivors include her daughters and sons-in-law, Deborah and David Hayes, Cindy and Mick Johnson; sons and daughters-in-law, Emory and Joanne Johnson, Hank and Janice Johnson; grandchildren, Brent and Kim Johnson, Melissa and Steve Wilkins, Wesley Hayes, Jonathan and Angel Hayes, Nichole and Billy Lott, Jeremy and Brittany Johnson, Jason and Jessica Johnson; 13 great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren; sister-in-law, Marina Coody; as well as several nieces and nephews.
