Muriel M. Johns
Obituary
Muriel M. Johns, 94, of Mesa, AZ, died
on February 22, 2015, in Peoria, AZ.
She was born September 14, 1920, in
Newton, KS, the only daughter of Max L. and Helen Seitz, deceased.
She graduated from Bethel College in Newton with a degree in piano
performance, then spending some years teaching piano in her hometown
area. After moving to the Los Angeles area, she met and married
Welshman Thomas C. Johns. Both worked for the Santa Fe Railroad until
their retirement, after which they moved to Roswell, NM, and finally
to Mesa in 1976, where Mrs. Johns continued after her husband's death
in 1996. They had no children.
She passed of age-related causes and
was ready in every way, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, to
leave this physical life, since she had trusted Jesus Christ alone
for her eternal welfare.
Mrs. Johns is survived by three nieces,
Lynn Seitz Wood of Divide, CO, Jeanice Seitz Conner of Flagstaff, AZ,
and Shelley Seitz of Vacaville, CA, all daughters of Mrs. Johns's
only brother, Howard M. Seitz, deceased; by six grandnephews and two
grandnieces; by 17 great-grandnephews and great-grandnieces; and four
great-great-grandnieces.
Mrs. Johns requested cremation. The
family will celebrate her memory in love at a private family
gathering.
