Betty Ann Johnson was a woman of strong faith whose belief in GOD guided her every step. She found great joy in spending time with her family and sharing kindness with everyone she encountered. Her life was a true reflection of grace, perseverance, and devotion. Betty was a constant source of strength, encouragement, and love to all who knew her.
Betty Ann Johnson was born on January 2, 1954, to the late Robert Best, Sr. and Maple Best. At an early age, she committed her life to Christ and later became a faithful member of Montreal Missionary Baptist Church in Montrose, Arkansas, where she continued to grow in faith and service.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Maple Best; three brothers, Robert Lee Best, Jr., Norman Lee Best and Paul Best, Sr.; and one son, Raymond Johnson

She is also survived by nine grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends.
