Cynthia Ann (Johnson) Nooner was born on November 9, 1941, to William Henry Andrew Johnson and Maggie Jane (McCall) Johnson Christ. She passed away on July 10, 2026, at her home in Ratliff City, Oklahoma, surrounded by loved ones.

Cynthia grew up attending Doyle High School, where she excelled academically and enjoyed playing basketball and volleyball. She was a dedicated student and graduated as Salutatorian of the Class of 1959. From 1954 through 1959, Cynthia spent her summers cutting broomcorn, an experience that reflected the strong work ethic she carried with her throughout her life.

After graduating from high school, Cynthia moved to Oklahoma City with her brother, A.J., and his family. She lived with them for about a year while beginning her working career at an insurance company in Oklahoma City.

On January 7, 1961, Cynthia married Edward Lee Nooner at the home of Maggie Hayes in Velma, Oklahoma. Together, Cynthia and Edward built a life and family and remained devoted to one another until Edward's passing in 2012.

While raising her children, Cynthia drove a school bus for Pernell Schools. Throughout the years, she also worked as a cashier at Walmart and later as a telephone operator for the telecommunications company Sitel. She retired in 2009 and became a full-time homemaker, dedicating much of her time to caring for her husband.

Faith was an important part of Cynthia's life. She attended Mountain View Full Gospel Church for most of her life.

Cynthia had many interests and talents. She had a passion for genealogy and devoted countless hours to researching and preserving her family's history. Her work resulted in the creation of two-family history books documenting the Nooner and Johnson families, leaving a treasured legacy for generations to come. She also enjoyed carpentry, photography, and gardening.

Those who gathered around Cynthia's table knew she was a wonderful cook. She was especially known for her potato soup, chocolate gravy, slop casserole, and chicken and dumplings—dishes that became cherished family favorites and will forever bring back memories of time spent together.

Above all else, the greatest highlights of Cynthia's life were her children and grandchildren. Her family brought her immeasurable joy, and the memories, traditions, family history, and love she shared with them will continue to live on for generations.
