Notations:

– Was type 1 Diabetic and required insulin injections. In her later years she would have to go to regular dialysis treatments and eventually collapsed.
Crystal’s Notations:
– Shanna Shipley used to call her Gommy, but most of the grandkids called her Grandmom. She was very proud of her 13 grandchildren.
– Used to live in the downstairs apartment of Shirley Barrows and Merle Barrows. Later lived in the downstairs apartment of Michael Wright and Maria.
– I remember visiting Grandmom in the hospital after her collapse. It was a fairly gruesome site, and you could not tell whether she was actually awake or if her brain was in fact dead while she was hooked up to all of the machines.
– Used to love to watch the Price is Right.
– Had befriended a Red Rooster owned by Jonathan Barrows named Rick.
– Loved to garden, play bingo, play mexican train dominos, and canasta card games.

Did this Alma Johnson ever reside in Los Angeles or San Antonio, even briefly?
I am looking for an Alma Johnson that could possibly have been in the Los Angeles & San Antonio areas around the middle 1960’s. Do you know if this Alma Johnson had been there at any point and time?
She is not the same Alma, no. She was born in Alabama and worked and lived in Alabama.
Alright, thank you so much…
