On a cool  Wednesday, January 9, 1935 to be exact,  Lawyer and Emma Hampton Johnson were blessed with thier first girl child.  She would be  the oldest of six children born to the Johnson union.  They named her Helen. Her siblings loved her dearly and affectionately called her “Sister”. On a chilly Sunday evening, Ocotber 25, 2015,  to be exact, Helen stepped from mortality to immortality.

In 1951, Helen became the beautiful bride of Gene Worley.  To this union, eight children were born: three boys and five girls.
