Johanna Martha Mickus passed away peacefully on September 2, 2023 surrounded by her family at Valley Crest Nursing Home in Apple Valley, CA. She was 85 years old. She had a long happy life and she will be missed. We find comfort knowing she is now at peace.
Johanna was born on August 6, 1938. She was born and raised in Bad Hersfeld, Germany the middle child of three girls. Johanna married Victor Mickus, the love of her life, in 1962. She moved to California after they married, and started their family. They were blessed with a daughter Rita and son Thomas.
Johanna was preceded in death by her husband Victor, son Thomas, her mother and father Barbara and Johannes Becker, and her sisters Annelise and Annegrete.
She is survived by her daughter Rita (Robert) and her granddaughter Tracy.
As per our mother’s wishes, she preferred not to have services or ceremonies. She only asked for our prayers and remembrances of her life as she proceeded on her journey.
We want to thank everyone for all their prayers, love and support. Without them and God’s strength we would never have made it through this most difficult time. We would also like to thank our church family, who have lifted us up in prayer as well. A special thanks to Dr. Kamath and Valley Crest Nursing Home for their support. To VNA Hospice nurses and staff who guided us through this heartbreaking process with kindness and compassion; we are forever grateful.
