Vercie Carmon-Johnson was born August 2, 1940 and called by her Maker on June 25, 2023. Her legacy will forever be etched in the hearts and minds of people who knew her as a somewhat private, yet very caring, dedicated, and loving person.
She devoted her life to educating children and adults. Vercie labored, without counting the cost, as an educator for The Diocese of Lafayette, Archdiocese of New Orleans, Diocese of San Diego, San Diego Community College District, the University of San Diego, and San Diego Unified School District, where she held different positions throughout her career.
Although she had no biological children, she considered all of her nieces and nephews as her children. Each of them was her favorite.
Vercie was devoted to her church, where she served in a variety of ministries. She was thankful and felt blessed to have been born into a staunch Roman Catholic family.
Family was important to Vercie. She made sure that special occasions in the life of family members were honored and celebrated.
Vercie is preceded in death by her loving parents Aristile and Edna Carmon, brothers; Bishop Dominic Carmon and Clifford Carmon, and sisters; Theresia Davis and Virginia Fonternot.
Survivors include her devoted husband Amos Johnson, Jr., brothers; Clifton (Ann) and
Aubrey, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends whom she loved and admired.
