October 14, 1995 – August 30, 2026

Paige Johnson, born October 14, 1995, passed away on August 30, 2026, at the age of 30.

Paige was a loving mother, daughter, sister, and cherished member of her family. She was a 2014 graduate of East Burke High School and built a career as a retail manager.

Above all, Paige treasured spending time with her children and family. She had a big heart and a caring spirit, always willing to love, help, and be there for the people she cared about. She had a love for life and was always ready for an adventure. She enjoyed making memories with the people she loved and had a special passion for softball.

Paige was a woman of faith and was a member of Hudson United Methodist Church, where her faith and relationship with God were an important part of her life.

Paige is survived by her mother, Amanda McKinney, and her spouse, William Harter; and her beloved children, Carter Gage Westbrook and Mason Wyatt Westbrook.

She is also survived by her brother, Vinny McKinney, and his spouse, Natasha Bebble.

She leaves behind many loving aunts, uncles, and extended family members, including Eddie and May Tapper, and Ed Johnson and his spouse, Jen Walker.

Her beloved cousins include Dylan Johnson and Ayron Johnson; Jack Tapper and Savannah Tapper, and their daughter, Addyson Tapper; Brigit Johnson, with Korbyn and Payton; Shelby Tapper; Cooper Johnson; and Riley Leatherman.

Paige was preceded in death by her grandparents, Edlyn Johnson and Debbie Johnson.

Although Paige’s life was far too short, the memories she created and the love she gave will live on through her children, family, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Her big heart, adventurous spirit, love for her family, faith, and beautiful memories will forever remain in the hearts of those she leaves behind.

She will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered, and forever cherished.

“Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day.”

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever in our hearts.
