To know Beano was to love her. She was a selfless woman who would give the shirt off her back. She was a hard worker. Working most of her life as a single mother. Beano’s main goal in life was her children, providing everything in her power for them, so they wouldn’t have to struggle, or go through the hardships she did growing up. Beano was a woman who enjoyed the simplicity of life. She adored cool fall mornings with a good cup of coffee, sitting at home after a long day of work watching lifetime or hallmark and going for back road scenic drives. She loved laughter. She loved sitting around the bonfire with the family late into the night. And cookouts because she loved food. A she loved her family fiercely. They always came first no matter what.
Though never married, Beano found her true love at 16. Spiritually, they were united. Her and her spouse Kojack Johnson Jr (Deceased) had a love that was stronger than anyone could ever know. One that nothing but life it’s self could stop.
There will not be a service or funeral. Instead, a Celebration of Life for close family and friends and will be set at a later date. Gibson & Son Funeral Home, Hawesville Chapel has been entrusted with care.
