ROCKY MOUNT – Jennifer Ellen Grimmage-Johnson, age 51, passed away on Thursday, April 4, 2024. Born in Queens, NY on December 11, 1972, she was the daughter of the late David and Norma Nelson Barnes. She was also preceded in death by her sister, Karen Winston and brother, David Winston. Jennifer was a loving mother to two wonderful daughters, a special friend and an amazing sister and daughter. She was a joy to be around, someone who’d light up every room, an amazing cook, and everyone had their own favorite dishes of hers. She loved all of those who loved her, from her crescent garden crew to her New York gals, her love was spread far. Although her life was short, she found love again with her husband and lived out her days with laughter and constant smiles. She will be truly missed.
