Virginia Eloise Johnson Charboneau (âWeezieâ), age 96, was born on October 2, 1924, in Haskell, Texas to Alice Pearl Mitchell & Otis Jack Johnson and passed away at 11:45PM on January 21, 2021 due to Alzheimerâs disease exacerbated by COVID-19. She was the oldest of four siblings and as the eldest, she cared for her sister Rosanne and her brothers Sonny & Jerry while her parents worked hard to provide for their family during the combined crises of the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl when jobs were practically non-existent and even the most basic of lifeâs necessities were hard to come by. She didnât have much of a childhood, yet these hard times forged her commitment to family. She outlived all her siblings.
