Anita Faye Johnson

Anita Faye Johnson, 83, passed away peacefully in her home in Visalia, California, on July 11, 2025. Born on May 12, 1942, in Oklahoma, Anita made her home in Visalia from early childhood. She lived a life defined by love, selflessness, and devotion to her family.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, A. Paul Johnson, Jr.; her parents, Wilma Faye and Bud Estrada; her brother, Tomas; her cherished great-grandson, Matix Schrader; and many beloved extended family members. She is now reunited with them in eternal peace.

Anita is survived by her loving daughters, Michele Johnson Talbot and her partner Mitchell Knox; and Cyndi Johnson Parent; her treasured granddaughters, Hayley and husband John Schrader; Devanne and husband Cole Preston; Maggie Talbot; Paige Parent and partner Jason Mallett; and Brooke Parent; and her precious great-grandchildren, Remi, Jensen, and Roczyn Schrader; with baby girl Drew Preston soon to arrive.

Anita’s greatest joy in life was her family. She gave selflessly, always placing the needs and happiness of her loved ones above her own. Her warmth, strength, and unwavering devotion were the heart of our family, and her absence will be felt deeply every single day.

Her legacy lives on in the love she instilled, the memories she helped create, and the generations of family she nurtured with unwavering care.
