Gladys “Ginny” Virginia (Westhafer) Johnson, age 86, of Mechanicsburg, died peacefully at the Church of God Home on Tuesday, November 18, 2014. Ginny was born on Tuesday, December 13, 1927 in Mechanicsburg to the late Wilbur Westhafer and Helen (King) Westhafer. Ginny was the widow of Harry Joseph Johnson, Jr., whom she married on July 1, 1968, and who died on July 21, 1998. In addition to her parents and husband, Ginny is preceded in death by her grandson, Craig Reed, who died in 2003, and her seven brothers and three sisters.

Ginny was a long-time member of First Church of God in Mechanicsburg where she enjoyed being active in the choir, the nursery, and the Monday Night Bible School. Having never driven a car, Ginny was well known for her walking in and around Mechanicsburg. She greatly enjoyed playing the lottery and Rummy 500; she was a winner! A kind spirit, Ginny loved little children and lending a hand to the elderly whenever she was able. Ginny was always thrilled to visit the Poconos, but more than anything else in life, Ginny cherished her family reunions. It was well known by everyone in the family that Ginny would always be there, always have everything ready, and always be ringing her cow bell. They were joyful times with a wonderful woman.
