Norfolk - On Saturday, October 19, 2013, an Angel of the Lord carried our loving 
mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, great grandmother, and best friend to eternal 
rest. When the Master called, Marion Ruth Johnson, 83, transitioned peacefully 
into Paradise. "Mompee", as she was affectionately called, was predeceased by her 
husband, Arthur T. Johnson III, and her son, Kevin "Jimmy" Johnson. She retired 
from Norfolk Public Schools after many years of service as a dietician. She was a 
devoted member of the Basilica of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Catholic 
Church, serving for many years as member of the Eucharistic Ministry, the 
Bereavement Ministry, and the Justice & Peace Committee. Ruth enjoyed life. She 
was especially proud of her family, where she spent a lot of years entertaining 
and caring for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She is survived by one 
daughter. Michele Logan(Sammie Logan Jr.); three sons, Arthur Graige Johnson 
(Angelus), Michael Johnson (Phyllis) and Dwight Johnson (Mable); brother, James 
Boyd Jr; a godson, Arthur Devon-Majarome; seven grandchildren and 12 great-

will be held at the Basilica of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception on Wednesday
