Birdie Ella Johnson, was the 8th child borne to Junior and Betty[Edgell] Johnson
on March, 30, 1968.
She had brown eyes, and long curly hair when growing up. She was always so skinny while growing up. When she got mad she would throw herself in the floor
and scream and cry until she got over her mad spell or got her way. [WE CALLED IT HER BIRDIE ELLA FITS, LOL].

She grew up into a beautiful woman, she had 3 children who she loved with all her heart.  Melissa Leann Lester,, Tasha Nicole Lester, and Brandon Scott Lester.

Birdie was stricken with breast cancer in 1993, she had a mastectomy and a bone marrow transplant. She went cancer free for about 6 yrs. before the cancer reoccured in the lymphnodes in her neck. She had chem, and radation again.

The cancer spread to mutiple areas and she passed away Jan, 20, 2001.
She left behind, 3 young children, her 7 sisters, and brother, who all loved her with all their hearts. I LOVE AND MISS HER EVERYDAY.,,,,,,,,,,,DIANE
