Nickolett Eve Johnson, 37, of Doniphan, Missouri, departed from her life on Friday, January 3, 2025, at St. Louis University Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri.
Nickolett, daughter of Mechelle Johnson (David Beardsley) and Doug Johnson (Diana), made her grand arrival to this world on December 31, 1987, in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. She was a firecracker from the moment she was born. She had a smile that could light up a room and eyes that twinkled. She was a free spirit and enjoyed the little things in life. She loved with all of her heart. She was a friend to many. Nickolett spent several years working with the elderly in nursing homes. Her personality shined bright there. She was full of grit and love and was the perfect CNA for the job.
Surviving are her parents: Mechelle Johnson (David Beardsley) of Doniphan, Missouri and Doug Johnson (Diana) of Willard, Missouri: one sister, Monique (Traviss) Conn of Doniphan: three children, Kaedyn Harp, Paul “PJ” Lowden, and Khyra Lowden of Doniphan: one step-sister, Brianna (Elliott) Odgen of Springfield: two aunts, Djuana (Gerald) Taylor and Debbie Johnson: one uncle, Stanley Johnson: two cousins who were more like brothers, Levi (Katelynn) Taylor and Zachary (Emily) Taylor: one niece, Kirsten (Alex) Littrell: one nephew, Logen Conn: two great-nephews on the way: cousin Heath (Jessica) Casteel, and several other family and friends, including a very special one, Travis Ezell.
She was preceded in her death by her grandparents Judy and Monte Bedford “Junior” Dilbeck, and Imogene and Gerald Johnson, and her uncle, Monte Zahn Dilbeck.
Visitation will be held at Edwards Funeral on Friday, January 10, 2025, beginning noon with the funeral service to follow at 2:00 p.m. Brother Shane Hastings will be officiating. The family will have a private interment.
