Bob was a very special man. I came to know Bob Johnson when I was a student at PJC back in the mid-1980's. He was one of the most influential teachers and kindest human-beings I had ever met. I am saddened to hear of his passing. We lost touch after I moved away from Pensacola and it's been many years since I last saw him. However, I've never forgotten his friendship and the impact he had upon me.
