Ella Victoria Johnson

June 13, 1936 - October 18, 2020

CASTLEWOOD, VIRGINIA – Ella Victoria Johnson was born on June 13, 1936, in Castlewood, Virginia. She was married to Benny Johnson, the love of her life on October 23, 1957. She moved to Heaven on October 18, 2020, to be with her husband, Benny, who moved there in August of 1990. Vickie and Bennie have three children; Bennie Jr., Mike, and Joe. Along with the son’s three wives, there are many grandchildren and great-grandchildren whom she loved dearly. Vickie also had a very special longtime friend, Jimmy Hobbs. Vickie was the last living sibling of her nine brothers and sisters. Ann Porter, Nancy Bradley, Fred Bradley, Jack Bradley, Wood Bradley, Doug Bradley, Gladys Jesse, Nae Jesse, and Herb Bradley. Vickie worked a few places over the years with her last job being at Buster Brown. She never met a stranger and everyone who met her loved her, and she loved them. So she has many, many, many, friends. She loved to travel and go to Gospel music festivals, The Carter Fold, and most of all Church. She will be greatly missed as she was a great friend, a special grandmother, a lovely wife, and a wonderful Mother! One thing she would want people to know is that Jesus Christ is real and if you haven’t accepted Him as your Lord and Savior – don’t wait. It’ll be the best decision of your life to accept Him into your heart. John 3:16 – “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life”. Proverbs 3:15 - “She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her”. We love you Mother and miss you. We will see you at the rapture. Vickie’s Home-Going Celebration will be a small intimate one with family only (family members who are Vickie’s nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, and uncles are welcome). However, it’s not open to the public in regards to “Social Distancing” at this time. Thank you for your understanding and prayers. Vickie’s Home-Going Celebration will be held at 1:00 p.m., Thursday, October 22, 2020, in Temple Hill Memorial Park in Castlewood, Virginia with Rev. Conn Edwards. The family will meet and leave from the Castlewood Funeral Home at 12:30 p.m. Thursday. We ask that everyone follow the COVID-19 restrictions concerning face-covering requirements and social distancing.
