Jo Lynn Johnson, 72, passed away peacefully at her home on December 14, 2019 with her loving husband, best friend and loyal dogs by her side. Jodi, as family and friends called her, was born on January 29, 1947 in Dinuba, California to the late Joey Dillon and Lorene (Roberts) Jones. She was the loving companion and wife of almost 50 years to Jerry Johnson. Jodi relished in spending time and making memories with those dear to her. She was a major presence in the lives of many and the matriarch of her family. In her spare time, Jodi enjoyed hunting, fishing, canoeing and camping. She loved gardening, traveling, spoiling her dogs and capturing pictures of special moments. Some of her favorite times were spent dancing with her husband, no matter where their adventures took them.
Jodi was a beloved wife, sister-in-law, aunt and friend. She will be sorely missed and is survived by her husband of Rogers; brother-in-law Jimmie (Jo) of Rogers; sister-in-law Lo Ellen Phillips of Rogers; best friend, Pat Patterson of Rogers; dear friends, Terry and Terrye Ritchie of Bentonville; numerous nieces, nephews and cousins; and of course, her faithful dogs, Maggie and Jettie.
Jodi was preceded in death by her parents and precious dog, Bailey, who passed a few months ago.
A visitation will be on Friday, December 20, at 10am preceding the Celebration of Life at 11am in Rollins Funeral Home.
