Lois Faye "Jackie" Johnson

February 12, 1930 - January 28, 2021

Lois Faye (Jackie) Johnson February 12, 1930-January 28, 2021 Lois Faye (Jackie) Johnson, also affectionately known as JJ, was born on February 12, 1930 to Vero and Bernice Merriman in Stigler, Oklahoma. Jackie was the youngest of three children; little sister to Jim Merriman and Tob Merriman both of whom preceded her in death. The family moved to the Kansas City area in 1940. Sadly, her mother Bernice died when Jackie was just 16 years of age and her father, Vero fell asleep in death in 1977. She met the love of her life, Chester F. Johnson, Jr. and married in 1950. They were married 41 years until his death in February 1991. Jackie is survived by her three sons and their wives, Curt and Nabiha Johnson, Chris and Tina Johnson, and Kent and Shannon Johnson; grandchildren Scott Johnson, Tara Ritter and her husband Jeff, Ryan Johnson and his wife Ashley, Christina Homen and her husband Chris, Dena Marie King and her husband Jesse, Tyler Johnson, and Amber Criner and her husband Benji; plus 10 great grandchildren. She enjoyed hosting family dinners, game nights and was especially remembered for entertaining and hosting multiple talent shows. Her love for her God Jehovah and her family were first and foremost in her life. Jackie was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and publicly demonstrated her dedication to Jehovah God by getting baptized at the International Convention held in St. Louis, Missouri in 1941. She attended the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Peculiar, Missouri and was active in her ministry work of declaring the good news of God’s Kingdom. It was her desire to follow God’s commandment set forth in Matthew 28:19, 20 to “Go…and make disciples of people of all the nations.” In addition to her family and her faith, Jackie loved her work as a Realtor for Coldwell Banker and Century 21 Realty. She was a member of “The High Earners Club” and achieved awards including the prestigious “Presidential Award”. Jackie wore many hats in a literal sense, being dubbed the “hat lady” as she owned and wore a large number of fashionable hats. When Jackie fell asleep in death on January 28, 2021, due to complications from pneumonia at Belton Research Hospital, she held firm in her faith. She was confident in her hope of the resurrection to a paradise earth according to the scriptures in John 5:28, 29 and Psalm 37:29. She wanted everyone she met to hear these promises from the Bible and we invite you to visit JW.Org to learn more about her beliefs. Services will be broadcast via Zoom on Saturday February 13, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. Please contact Shannon at [email protected] for additional information. The family would like to thank everyone for their loving sentiments, condolences, cards, flowers and overall support during this time. As an expression of sympathy memorial contributions may be made to donate.jw.org.
