Linda S Johnson

May 11, 1960 - July 3, 2022

Wapakoneta – Linda S. Johnson, 62 died in the comfort of her own home after a sudden illness. Linda was surrounded in death by her daughter, sisters, mom, brother, son-in-law, best friend Pam, and grandchildren, who all lovingly cared for her.

Ms. Johnson was born May 11, 1960 in St. Mary’s Ohio to James C. Jones and Helen Jones (Lamarr.) She is survived by Mrs. Jones who lives in Buckland, Ohio.

Ms. Johnson was preceded in death by her son Jeb T. Johnson, father James C. Jones, brother Jeffrey T. Jones, and sister Judith L. Jones. Survivors include a daughter and son, Lacy and Dustin Gallaspie, and grandchildren Lucy and Liam, who were her world. She is survived by three sisters, two brothers and her furry friends Simon, Bob, and Chloe who were her loyal, loving companions who never left her side.

Ms. Johnson was a long-time Registered Nurse who always had a compassion to help people. One of her latest accomplishments was successfully completing her Master’s Degree for Nurse Practitioner from Purdue Global University but she had not yet started her new career.

Ms. Johnson was a genuinely altruistic and loving person in all of her life. Anyone who knew Ms. Johnson knew that her grandchildren Lucy and Liam were her pride and joy. She lived to love and enjoyed life to the fullest. She loved spending time with her family and friends and was always there to brighten the lives of others. In her free time Ms. Johnson would be found tending to her beautiful flowers or riding around town in a golf cart with her best friend.

Ms. Johnson leaves behind a huge hole in the hearts of many yet we know her spirit and memories will live on forever. Someday we will meet again.

There will be a private family celebration of life held at a future date.

Linda was a loving mother to Lacy and Jeb. She worked hard to give them whatever they needed and, when possible, what they wanted. She was a loving sister who was a lot of fun. She could make the most mundane task into a burst of laughter. She had many challenges in life but she never complained. She never let the loss of her dearly loved son Jeb or her health challenges hold her back. She was an excellent nurse who took care of me through several surgeries. There is no one better. She worked full-time and continued her education by getting a master's degree for nurse practitioner. Even though she didn't get to practice her new career, she completed what she started. She was goal oriented and persistent and didn't let anything stop her from completing her goals. She is gone way too soon. She had everything she wanted in life except longevity. I love you sister. You will always be in my heart and mind. I will see you in heaven and we will have many more adventures. We will watch over Lacy and her family. Until we meet again.
