She loved life and enjoyed being around people. There is no doubt she will be dearly missed by her children and friends.Johnnie Ruth Hinnant, 99, a long-time Tulsa resident passed from this life on Saturday, June 3, 2023 at her residence.

"We can be sad that we lost someone we adored, and who we will miss every day - but we can also be grateful for the time we did have with her - and for the impact she had on our lives."We love you Mom..
