Natalie Melesia Williams Johnson, 58, of Quincy, Florida, peacefully departed this life on Sunday, April 5, 2026, in Tallahassee, Florida.
Natalie was born on February 12, 1968, at Gadsden Memorial Hospital. She was a lifelong resident of Quincy, Florida, where she was known for her warm spirit and loving personality. She was a devoted member of Mt. Zion Primitive Baptist Church.
Natalie received her education at James A. Shanks High School and later completed her GED. She dedicated her professional life to serving others as a Certified Nursing Assistant with Big Bend Hospice, where her compassion and care touched many lives.
She found joy in the simple pleasures of life—listening to music, watching television, and most importantly, making others laugh. Natalie was known as the “family comedian,” always bringing smiles to those around her. She was giving, kind-hearted, and cherished for her ability to bring family and friends together, especially during meaningful gatherings.
Visitation will be held on Friday, April 17, 2026, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Bradwell Mortuary in Quincy, Florida. A Celebration of Life will be held 11am on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at St. John Church of God in Christ. Interment will follow at Sunnyvale Cemetery in Quincy, Florida.
Natalie leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband, Lee Roy Johnson of Quincy, FL; her daughter, Crystal Ebony Collins of Tallahassee, FL; her son, Jaron Pernell McNealy of Quincy, FL; her mother, Martha Wynn Williams of Quincy, FL; and her sister, Anna M. Williams of Quincy, FL. She is also survived by her brother, Terry Phillips of Rochester, NY.
She was preceded in death by her father, Wesley Williams and a sister, Maggie Lasonja Williams Betsey.
