Lois Patricia Johns

October 8, 1958 — August 27, 2020

Lois Patricia Johns, 61, of Hayesville, NC, has been welcomed home by her Heavenly Father into the Kingdom of Heaven. A child of God, a cherished momma, a playful and caring sister, a loving aunt, a treasured Gammy, a one-of-a-kind friend, and an Angel on Earth—she will be lovingly remembered through the legacy of her children, grandchildren, siblings, friends, ministry, and testimony.

Lois was born October 8, 1958 in Atlanta, Georgia. On August 27, 2020, Lois was healed of her two-year battle against Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer—a battle that she fought with inspiring courage and grace. Waiting to welcome her home, was her mother, Evelyn Stewart Terry, and father, Carlton David Hobbs. She is survived by her sisters, Ginger Bush and Millie Wright, and brothers, Charles and David Hobbs. She was the most incredibly loving, self-less, and dedicated mother to her six children, Steve Johns (Amanda), Paul Johns, Brian Johns, Carly Anderson (Bobby), Toni Sheppard, JR Sheppard, and stepdaughter Sheree Sheppard. Lois was a proud “Gammy” to her nineteen adoring grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. She is also survived and will be missed by her many affectionate nieces and nephews, and seven rambunctious, tiny dog children.

Lois graduated Henry W. Grady High School in Atlanta, GA, class of 1975. Her love for God and her devotion to serving Him led her to pursue her calling of mentorship and ministry. For the past fifteen years, Lois used her testimony to teach and share the message of God’s Love, Mercy, and Forgiveness. Anyone touched by Lois knows she loved unconditionally and without judgement. May her spirit of love and laughter be remembered by all.
