John W. Johnson's Obituary
John Wesley Johnson, age 61, arrived at heaven's gates on December 17, 2022. He was born on August 12, 1961, in Seaford, DE, son of the late Myers R. Johnson, Sr, and Esther Ann (King) Lee.
Jack is best known as the husband, the father, the brother, the uncle, and the friend that could be counted on. He was incredibly talented with hobbies ranging from hunting, fishing, software, electronics, and painting. He was a perfectly imperfect man that everyone wanted to make proud. He was the glue to his large family for a long time. His happiest moments were spent by his wife’s side as their family filled their home for special gatherings. His passion for football made each Sunday exciting for everyone who cheered for the Ravens with him.
Jack loved everyone the best way he knew how, and he did it fiercely. He opened his arms several times to his family and friends when they needed a home. Jack left this earth too soon. His laughter, his knowledge, his cooking, his endless puns and “Dad jokes,” his comfort and security will be greatly missed. However, his spirit will be felt everyday as his life was spent gifting all who know him with pieces of it.
Proceeded in death, he was greeted by our angels; his sister Sherry German, his father Myers Ronald Johnson Sr, and his brother Myers Ronald Johnson Jr (Ronnie). John (Jack) is survived by his loving wife of 32 years Julie Johnson, his mother Esther Lee, his daughters Nancy Mathis, and Christina Spanos and his seven grandchildren. Jack is also survived by his sisters Cheryl Edwards and Suzette Donovan, eight nephews and nieces and many great nephews and nieces.
