Obituary

Barbara Dorene Johnson

Barbara Johnson, 75, passed away peacefully on February 19, 2025, at her home in Tucson, Arizona.  She was born on June 12, 1949, in Richmond, Contra Costa County, California, as Barbara Dorene Davis.  She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother.

Barbara dedicated much of her life as a homemaker and caring for her husband of 55 years, Dennis.  She had a particular passion for genealogy, arts and crafts, dogs, and her love for Samuel, her pet parrot of 37 years, brought joy to her life and to those around her.  She lived in California in her younger years before moving to Arizona to enjoy her retirement.  She loved traveling with her husband and they took many cruises and trips together.

Barbara was preceded in death by her father, Nelson James Davis; and her mother, Emma L. Turner.   She is survived by her loving husband, Dennis M. Johnson; her son, Michael; and her grandchildren, Mikayla and Noah.  She also leaves behind many dear friends who will forever hold her memory in their hearts.

I'm so saddened to hear of my goodv friend's passing. We spoke often about memories we shared and all the similarities we had. We married the same year, so very close to the same age within 3 weeks. Married very close to the same time. I'll miss chatting with her. We spoke often since Dennis became ill and my husband was also ill. She was my support and I was hers. My husband passed away January 28,2025. She sent a beautiful bouquet of flowers and was there for me. I'm heartbroken. Till we meet again my sweet friend. Love you
