Betty Johnson was a true servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. She served this county and other counties many years by giving Bibles to 5th graders at schools through the Gideon Auxiliary. Nurses were also recipients of Bibles at graduation. She certainly has a soul-winners crown awaiting her. Not only did she serve through her ministry, but was one of the greatest prayer warriors I have ever known. She will truly be missed.
