Obituary for Yvonne Johnson (Jones)
Yvonne Johnson, daughter of the late Nannie Jones and the late David Thomas Jones, was born on April 5, 1936 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. She departed this life on Monday, January 16, 2023.
Yvonne was educated in the local school of Pittsylvania County and was a member of Shockoe Missionary Baptist Church. She was united in holy matrimony to Charles Victor Johnson of Lambertville, New Jersey. She had moved to Lambertville approximately 67 years ago and was a union shop steward and cashier for Acme Markets, before retiring in 1998.
Yvonne was a beautiful, kindhearted woman who was loved and respected by many. She taught her children to always be kind and show respect. She loved telling stories about the good old days. She was a great cook, loved baseball, a good movie and a good book. Her smile was contagious. She loved to laugh, sing, dance, play a little rummy, and listen to the oldies.
Yvonne leaves to mourn her passing: 3 children, David Jones and his wife Margaret of Lambertville, New Jersey, Richard Jones of Annapolis, Maryland, and Victoria Moats of Annapolis, Maryland; her granddaughter Tamara LaShawna Jones of Ringoes, New Jersey, her sister Jane Johnson of Ewing, New Jersey; many nieces and nephews, other relatives and a host of friends. Yvonne was preceded in death by two sisters, one brother-in-law and one brother: Lillian “Jack” Mars of Virginia, Christina Pittman and brother-in-law William Pittman of Browns Mill, New Jersey and Joe Lewis Jones of Pittsylvania County, Virginia.
WE LOVE YOU MOM AND WILL MISS YOU EVERY DAY.
