Mary Kathryn ("Bebe") Murrell Moore Johnson died on September 16, 2022.

She was born in Vernon, Texas on August 18, 1929.  She was the daughter of Dick and Lillian Murrell and the brother of Buddy Murrell.  She graduated from Vernon High School in 1947, matriculated at the University of Texas at Austin later that year, and was a member of Tri Delta sorority.  On August 12, 1950, she married William Raymond ("Bill") Moore, Jr. at the First Methodist Church in Vernon. They had two children, Billy and Elise, and were very active in the Vernon community.

When Bill died in March of 1990, Bebe continued to live in Vernon.  In April 1994 she married Sam Johnson, who had also attended VHS.  After Sam's first spouse died, he and Bebe struck up a friendship which led to their marriage.  In 2000, Sam and Bebe moved to Kerrville, Texas. Sam passed away in January of 2018 in Kerrville. Bebe was a loving daughter, devoted wife, caring mother, and an exemplary role model to many young women in Vernon.

Her memorial funeral service will be held at the First Methodist Church at 11:00 a.m. on September 22, 2022, to be followed by a reception in the church parlor.
