Mable was an enthusiastic walker who enjoyed walking in the historical Irvington area almost daily. One of her greatest pleasures in life was attending big family parties where the 'Bryant Girls" which included her "mommy" and 5 sisters joined in a circle and danced (stomped) for hours.

Surviving to cherish her memory are her children; Charles Johnson (Diane), Doug Johnson (Peggy), Joy York (Dan) and Karen Johnson; sisters, Juanita Gillenwater, Julia Gillenwater and Kathryn Bowman.
