Always had a smile . Especially when offered a Hug or a Reese´s cup . You will be missed
Every day i will see Skip walking up and down the hall rearranging the furniture, it me laugh because even though I told him he had a day off he kept going . But the best part is when he would be bright eyed and smiling that big smile when you greeted him and gave a hug but when offering a Reese’s Cup his eyes shine even brighter, I remember Skip telling me that was his favorite candy . You will be missed Skip but never forgotten ..

John A. Johnson “Skip”, passed from this life on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, into the arms of Jesus, his Lord and Savior.
Skip was born on August 21, 1957 at Nellis A.F.B., Las Vegas, Nevada. Being the son of a military man, Skip attended schools in several states from Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, San Antonio, Texas, and Omaha, Nebraska. Skip graduated from Burkburnett High School in 1975 and enlisted in the United States Air Force for four years. After training at Sheppard A.F.B. he was transferred to Eglin A.F.B. in Fort Walton Beach, Florida. He and his wife and two children returned to Lubbock, Texas where Skip was employed by Honeywell.
Skip leaves behind his parents, John and Irma Johnson of Burkburnett; two brothers, David and wife Janet of Iowa Park, and Steven of Burkburnett; his children, Jason of Newport, Tennessee, Anissa and husband Tony, Jenna and husband Roy of New Braunfels, and Cole of California; twelve grandchildren; and one great-grandchild. He also leaves behind many close friends, aunts, and uncles.
Skip will be missed by many who loved him and will cherish many memories. He worked hard all of his life until his health became so bad, he had to retire.
Graveside service will be 2:00 p.m. Monday, August 25, 2025 at Burkburnett Memorial Cemetery with Bro. Joe Coombes, officiating. Arrangements are under the direction of Owens & Brumley Funeral Home in Burkburnett.
