Linda Jean Johnson, 76, of Greenville
GREENVILLE, KY., Linda Jean Johnson, 76, of Greenville passed away on March 4, 2023 at the Maple Manor Nursing Home in Greenville. She was born January 26, 1947 in Central City. Family aside, if you asked Linda about her proudest accomplishment, she would immediately tell you it was her decision to study with the Jehovah’s Witnesses. The friends and memories she made at the Kingdom Hall were some of her most cherished. More importantly, Linda believed fervently that after her passing, and when her Lord and Savior returned, she would be resurrected on Paradise Earth surrounded by her loved ones. Lovingly called Little Linda by friends and family, her stature was the only thing small about her. Linda’s big personality filled every room she walked in. The warmth she exuded attracted people of all ages. Her friendships spanned generations. Linda’s family thinks it’s important to speak openly about what led to her passing, diabetes. It should serve as a cautionary tale for anyone diagnosed with this chronic disease. If you don’t take care of it, you could lose your eyesight, go into kidney failure, and have congestive heart failure. These are just a few of the things that happened to Linda. If you want to honor her memory, take care of your health and take diabetes seriously. A homemaker who held several jobs throughout her life while raising three kids and helping raise several grandchildren, Linda was devoted to her family. Her home was always a place of comfort and that will be sorely missed.
Linda was preceded in death by many loved ones, H.B. Williams the man she called her one true love, her mother Mary Holmes, her father Floyd Nevels, Jr., her grandparents Floyd Nevels, Sr., Terry Hill, Jannie Vanzan and Henry Langley, 1 grandchild Tiarra Johnson, a great-grandchild Jaslyn Hocker, several brothers and sisters David Cloud, Ernest Langley, Floyd Nevels III, Georgia Holmes Boyd, Ola Belle Woodson, Otho Holmes and Willie Lynch.
