Liz Waters wrote a sympathy message

“I had the privilege of working with Ms. Johnnie, for many years, at Terry Children’s Center. Her title should have been “Saint” Ms Johnnie was always kind, caring, compassionate and gentle with staff and students alike. We had a population that included some of the most difficult and challenging students throughout the State. I never saw Ms Johnnie get frazzled, angry, upset or short tempered no matter what! I know this has to be a very great loss to her family. Sincerely, Liz Waters”
