Connie Jo

Johnson

Connie Jo Johnson, 54, of Dover, Indiana passed Wednesday, October 24, 2018.  Connie grew up in Rising Sun, Indiana near Aberdeen.  She graduated from Rising Sun High School and in 1993 married Ralph Johnson.  They had 2 daughters Micaela and Marissa.
Connie's favorite past time was reading.  She passed this love on to both of her daughters.  She loved to have a big garden and a sea of pink flowers around her entire landscape.  She always canned and preserved her garden produce.
Another passion for Connie was her animals.  She loved dogs, cats, and goats.
Her greatest pride and joy was her daughters.  All she wanted was a family.  Even while her health was failing, she taught both daughters how to cook, bake, and all the other life skills they would need in life.
She fought a courageous 20 year battle against multiple sclerosis.  On October 24, 2018 she lost that battle.  At the time of her passing she was surrounded by her husband and daughters.
Connie loved a good piece of chocolate!
Besides her husband and daughters, Connie leaves her brother Jerry Whitham.  She was preceded in death by her parents Hazel and Leon Whitham.
Celebration of Life is Tuesday, October 30 starting at  5:00 with a memorial service at 7:00 at Andres-Wuestefeld Funeral Home.
Memorials to the wishes of the family.
