Obituary

Mother Eva Mae Johnson was born on December 17, 1934, to Charlie Wilson and Otha Wilson in Zebulon, Georgia. She received her formal education at Pike County Consolidated High School in Concord, Georgia.

Mrs. Eva Mae Johnson accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior at an early age, where she served as one of the Mothers of the Church.

Ms. Eva Mae Wilson was united in holy matrimony to Mr. Johnnie Lee Johnson in Pike County. Their union was blessed with 6 children.

She was employed by Brightmoor Nursing Home as a Certified Nursing Assistant. In her leisure time she enjoyed watching old movies, to name a few, Sanford and Son, Walker Texas Ranger, and Perry Mason, but the thing she loved the most was spending time with her family and friends.

On Friday, June 26, 2026, our Heavenly Father called Mother Eva Mae Johnson home where she will forever dwell in God's presence. She is now set free from all sickness and pain. Rest now in peace and comfort, your journey has ended, battle fought, and victory won. She was preceded in death by her husband, Johnnie Lee Johnson, her parents, Charle and Otha Wilson, her sons, Harold Lee Johnson and Eric T. Johnson.

Mother Eva Mae Johnson leaves to cherish her precious memories in the hearts of her children, Gladys (Toney) Favors, Carolyn Johnson, Kenneth Johnson, and Johnny Johnson, Jr., 10 grandchildren, 18 great grandchildren, one great-great grandchild, her niece, Charlene Wilson, special friend, Missy, and special great granddaughter, Taylor Johnson.
