Charlotte K Johnson

Charlotte Ann Johnson began her life’s journey on May 20, 1945, in Daytona Beach, FL. She was the oldest of three children born to Jean Douglas King and Charlotte Ann (Cook) King. She grew up mainly in Florida, but her senior year she moved to Winston-Salem, NC where she graduated from R.J. Reynolds High School in 1963.

She would answer a calling to care for others by becoming a registered nurse in 1977. She began her career in the Intensive Care Unit at Bowman Grey Baptist hospital and would finish when she retired in 2007 from Mercy Hospital’s Cardiac Cath lab in Charlotte, NC. She was highly skilled, well-respected, and passionate in her field. She was an advocate for her patients, as well as her colleagues. Those who worked with her know that it was not uncommon for her to speak her mind and stand her ground for the good of her patient.

Charlotte was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints. She was actively involved in her church family until her health decline. Her involvement ranged from teaching primary, Relief Society and visiting home teaching to being a Cub Scout Den Mother.

She also volunteered in her community and was a member of the Eastern Star.

Charlotte loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a granny, a GiGi, and a friend. She loved gardening and was always excited to see the many blooms of Springtime. She loved to bake breads and cook meals for family and friends, as well as, doing craft projects that included sewing, needlework, crocheting, and painting---pretty much anything she set her mind to. She loved going out with her friends and visiting her family.

She departed this world Sunday, August 29, 2021, in her Charlotte, NC home after a long battle with pulmonary fibrosis.

She is preceded in death by her parents, her younger brother John Douglas King, and her beloved dog Lotta.

Roberts (Pat), Winston-Salem, NC; daughter Michelle Bierman (Carl), Melbourne, FL; daughters Meg Thompson and Dee Dee Johnson, Charlotte, NC; daughter Trish Johnson (Doug), Boone, NC; son Joey Johnson (JoAnn), Charlotte, NC.; her baby brother Ronnie King (Sara) Maysville, NC.; Grandchildren---Amy Hanks (Joe), Jimmy Luper (Misty), Reggie Luper (Kerrie), MaryAnn Roberts, and Sara Harycki (Joe); 15 great-grandchildren that she adored tremendously; as well as all of her extended family and friends!
