A SENATE RESOLUTION
EXPRESSING THE SYMPATHY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE

FRIENDS OF THE LATE REVEREND MRS. BRODIE REEVES

Whereas, Reverend Mrs. Brodie Reeves Johnson died on Tuesday,
February 15, 1994; and
Whereas, Mrs. Johnson, a resident of West Columbia, was born on
May 14, 1916, in Chapin, the daughter of Mr. Joe Reeves and Mrs.
Minnie Mayers Reeves; and
Whereas, she was a faithful member of Stonewall Holiness Church in
Chapin, where she served as the assistant pastor for many years; and
Whereas, she was the dedicated and devoted housekeeper for the Joe
Graves and his grandson, Senator Joe Wilson, family for forty years
prior to her retirement; and
Whereas Pastor Johnson was the devoted and loving wife of Elder
Johnnie Lee Johnson for fifty-five years, having been married in
Chapin; and
Whereas, she leaves to cherish her precious memory: her husband,
Elder Johnnie Lee Johnson; two sisters, Mrs. Golese Long of Chapin,
S. C., and Mrs. Sadie Mills, of Washington, D. C.; a brother, Mr.
Waldo Reeves, of Chapin, S. C.; three sisters-in-law: Mrs. Mary

Silas Patterson of Chapin, S. C., and a host of nieces, nephews,
cousins, other relatives, and many friends, all of whom join with the

the family and many friends of the late Reverend Mrs. Brodie Reeves
Johnson of West Columbia in Lexington County.
