Alfred W. Johnson Jr.'s Obituary
Alfred W. Johnson Jr., age 87 of Millsboro, DE, passed away on Monday, March 06, 2017, at his home. He was born Monday, January 06, 1930 in Philadelphia, PA, son of the late Alfred W. Sr. and Harriet (Bachman) Johnson.
Mr. Johnson was a US Naval Academy graduate and a proud US Navy Veteran, serving 4 years as a line officer. He studied Naval Science during his active duty, concentrating on electrical and mechanical engineering. After his service time, Mr. Johnson had a lifelong career in the electrical engineering field, ultimately owning his own consulting business, Johnson Associates. He was a member of St. George's Chapel, where he served as Treasurer and was a member of both the Chapel Committee and the cemetery committee.
In his spare time, Mr. Johnson enjoyed boating, fishing, and golfing. More than anything, however, he cherished the time spent with his family. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend, and he will be genuinely missed by all who were blessed to know him.
Mr. Johnson is survived by his beloved wife, Lois Johnson of Millsboro, DE; his son, David W. Johnson of Boyertown, PA; his daughter, Patty A. Mullen and her husband Donald of Gap, PA; and his grandchildren: Kathryn, Timothy, Benjamin, Britni, and Chad.
A Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 AM on Saturday, March 18, 2017 at St. George's Chapel, 20271 Beaver Dam Road, Harbeson, DE.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions in Mr. Johnson's memory to St. George’s Episcopal Church Women Scholarship Fund for Girls, All Saints’ Parish Office, 18 Olive Avenue, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971.
