Sorry for your loss. Sending prayers of comfort and healing.
Your FDOT family.
Thank you for your insight during your time as FBLA advisor. Without your role in my life, I would not be where I am today. I'm heartily thankful for that. Many blessings to you and sending my warm prayers to the family.

Ms Johnson was my favorite teacher and FBLA advisor 2011-2015. I genuinely owe all of my success of today to her guidance and teachings. I cherish so many memories of how patient and encouraging she was throughout my high school journey. She was and forever will be my favorite teacher of lessons and life. Thank you, Ms Johnson for all you did for us students at Clewiston High School. Sometimes in moments of stress, years beyond, I stop and think of when I won State Vice President at the convention and how Ms Johnson embraced me and told me she knew I could do it! She never let a student feel discouraged or not worthy of accomplishing anything- big or small. Thoughtful, selfless, mindful & kind. What an incredible woman. I wish we could have reconnected again after high school. I don't believe I ever got to sincerely thank her for the confidence she gave me. Till we meet again. - Susan Walker
Thank you Mrs. Johnson for always being so supportive and encouraging during my high school days. I will always remember our bond during FBLA and your positive spirit. You'll always have a special place in my heart. My biggest condolences to the family. -Jessica Wood (CHS class of 2009)

Forever my friend. We created many memories while working together at Clewiston High School and beyond. Thanks for always having my back. You will be sorrily missed. My deepest condolences to the family.
The symbol of an iconic and a phenomenal woman is the life she lived and the services that she gave to others...I can remember sitting at the piano with her at eight years old singing "Yes Jesus Loves Me." At Mount Olive Missionary Baptist Church in Rita Village under the leadership of Revered Floyd Keys. Once she saw the gift, she cultivated it, and it grew... Thirty-six years later it is still manifesting itself... I will always love you for your kindness, generosity and wisdom that you displayed in our lives!! We will never forget you and your dedication to our community and will forever remain in our hearts ๐
Unk, May God comfort you and heal your heart as you cherish the loving memories of your queen. Our prayers embrace you.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
