and Mary Edith Walker Newman. She attended Cathedral High School and went on to work for Shell
Oil where she met and married her husband of 66 years, Howard Johnson. They went on to have five children, six grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Her faith was the glue of the family. She loved a big Christmas surrounded by mayhem and laughter. She never tired of hearing what was happening in everyone's life. Summertime often brought large family vacations or a trip to the family beach house in Galveston. Her gentle nature and laughter will be greatly missed.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Howard Johnson; parents Andrew and Mary Walker Newman; sisters Margaret Newman, Virginia Shay, Jeanne Fangman, and Rosemary Gard; brothers Edward Newman and Jack Newman; and son-in-law John W. Grant. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimers Association.
