Kimberly Ann Johnson

Kimberly Ann Downs-Johnson, age 57, of Shawnee, Oklahoma, passed away on September 16, 2025, after a courageous, long-draining battle with pain and depression.

Kimberly was born in San Pedro, California, on February 1, 1968, to Cynthia Elaine Downs and Paris R. Winkleman of Norwalk, California. She grew up in California where she started to pursue her desire to go into the Marines but realized her bigger dream of starting a family. At the age of 17, she accomplished that dream of becoming a mom by having her first-born son, Eric Micheal Johnson, who was quickly followed by Crystal, Lacey, and finally, Cody. With four children to raise, she remained a stay-at-home mom.

As Kimberly’s children got older, they started having children of their own, making Kimberly a grandmother, and she realized her dream of having a big family had come true. For many years, she devoted her life to trying to be the best mother and grandmother she could be. She loved with all or not at all and had a smile that would radiate a room. She will be remembered for the love and affection she showed her family and friends, and for having the biggest heart. Kimberly loved nothing more in this world than her family and being with them. She will truly be missed.

Kimberly is predeceased by her mother, Cynthia Elaine Downs; her Aunt Theresa; and her cousin, Denise—with whom she shared fond memories of her family throughout the years.

Kimberly is survived by her children: son, Eric Micheal Johnson and wife, Kristen Marie Daddio, and their daughter, Ariya Evelyn Johnson; daughter, Crystal Ann Williams and her children, Brianna Michelle Williams and Bryson Thomas Williams; second daughter, Lacey Nicole Johnson, and her children, Abigail Grace Murray and Daniel Lee Murray III; and youngest son, Cody Allen Johnson and wife, Samantha Marie Johnson, and their daughter, Ellie Marie Johnson.
