Barbara Ann Johnson Armstrong, age 81, of Morehead, passed away Tuesday, August 16, 2022, at her residence.

She was born January 22, 1941, in Bath County, and was a daughter of the late Martin and Ella Pearl Armstrong Johnson. Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by three brothers, Ralph Johnson, Hansford Johnson, and Ronnie Johnson; and three sisters, Nell McKenzie, Norma Charles, and Avonia Crouch.

Barbara is survived by her husband of 63 years, Mitchell Neil Armstrong, whom she married September 20, 1958; one daughter, Regina Wright of Lexington; one sister, Opal Jones of Mt. Sterling; two beloved grandchildren, Brooke Walters and Austin Wright; a host of nieces and nephews; and other extended family and friends.

Barbara was a private caregiver and a former housekeeping supervisor at the Holiday Inn in Morehead. She enjoyed reading, working crossword puzzles, and was a fun-loving and happy person who lived life to the fullest. Barbara was a "spit fire" who never slowed down--she was always on the go. She will be greatly missed.
