Geneva Ann Johnson, 77, of Bryant Arkansas and of Baptist faith went to be with the Lord February 10, 2020. Born April 16, 1942 to the late Van Thurman Taylor and Elizabeth Maude Carrigan Szarowicz. Awaiting to rejoice with her in heaven is her brother David Eugene Taylor, sister Betty Lou Price, her husband of 53 years Ronald Johnson and grandson Cameron Beckwith. She is survived by sister, Marilyn Faye Craise and brother, Sony James Taylor, stepbrother, Billy Szarowicz, stepsisters Vera Webster, and Alice Queen.
With a tender heart and a mild personality, she cherished her children, Terrie Lorenson (Mike), Michael Johnson (Charlene), Sherri Sulton (Darrin). She adored her grandchildren Aaron Johnson (Megan), Halie Nelson (Austin), Breanna Sanders, Acee Johnson, Krista Sulton, and her great grandchildren Brynn Beckwith, Alex Beckwith, Westin Johnson, Rayleigh Nelson, Ryder Nelson.
Geneva was a kid at heart and enjoyed puzzles, rock collecting, coloring, and playing cards and board games with her grands. She liked to go fishing and believed that if you spit on the worm you would catch the big one. She enjoyed going to the casino to play the slots and she had this funny little ritual that she liked to do before pulling the handle of a slot machine. You know, for good luck. But most of all, the thing that always put a smile on her face was Festus or Bobobe as she called her pet and best friend.
