Obituary: Brown, Johna Lee

BROWN, Johna Lee (Age 84) Johna became separated from the love of her life Demetria Brown on March 3, 2013.

She decided it was time to join him on March 25, 2013.

The two lovebirds celebrated 55 wonderful years of marriage together.

She will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by her son Nicholas Brown and daughter-in-law Kristina.

Johna was born May 29, 1928 in Moline, IL.

She grew up in a township just outside of Chicago.

She was known to “cross the bridge” with her girlfriends for a night of great music and the jitterbug.

Johna, to no one’s surprise became a professional dancer.

In her mid 20’s she moved to Spokane and began working as a bookkeeper for Tubbs Electric.

This is where she caught the eye of a charming co-worker Demetria “Jimmy” Brown…and the rest as they say is history.

We love you Johna.
