Virginia "Ginger" Johnson

March 4, 1939 – March 31, 2026

Virginia Johnson, known affectionately by all who loved her as “Ginger,” passed away on March 31,2026. Born March 4, 1939, in Monticello, Mississippi, she was the daughter of John C. and Myrtis Lee Lambert Fuller.

Ginger’s life was defined by strength and family devotion from an early age. Following the passing of her mother when Ginger was only five, she later moved to Bossier City to be raised by her eldest sister, Ida, and brother-in-law, Jimmy. It was in Bossier City that she met and married her high school sweetheart, Marvin Thomas Cutrer, with whom she shared her life until his death in 1976.

In 1988, Ginger married Tommy Ray Johnson. The two shared a life of travel and adventure across the country before retiring to the shores of Lake Bistineau. Following Tommy’s passing, Ginger moved to Farmerville, Louisiana, where she spent her final years being deeply loved, cared for, and spoiled by her niece, Tracy, and her husband, Randy Armstrong.

Though Ginger had no children of her own, her impact on the next generation was profound. She was a constant source of support and joy as a "fun" aunt to her seven nieces and three nephews, all of whom will treasure her memory and miss her dearly.

Ginger was preceded in death by her parents, John C. Fuller and Myrtis Lee Fuller; her husbands, Marvin Cutrer and Tommy Johnson; brothers and sisters in law, Charles and Merlaine Fuller, Jay and Gay Fuller; sisters and brothers in law, Ida and Jimmy Cummings, Lorene and Lou Marrero; niece and nephew, Carolyn Marrerro and John Burwell.
