William Bevan Johnson

Laurel-
Thoughts and Prayers going out to you Sweet friend! I'm So Proud to have had Bill for my Government Teacher at Highland 1985/86 :-) And to have Reconnected the last couple years.
Yes, He will be missed.... He will Always be Remembered Fondly!
You are Precious Laurel - All My Love

I will always remember Bill as one of the most energetic and sincerely helpful colleagues I have ever known. He was a great champion of student learning through the use of technology and spearheaded its implementation at Highland High School. I am proud to say he made me a better Teacher Librarian because of my association with him. Laurel, my thoughts are with you and your family at this time of mourning.

It was with great sadness that I learned of the passing of my friend and colleague Bill Johnson. His energies seemed to have few boundaries during the 30+ years I had the pleasure of watching him teach and coach. The Mustangs must have tears as they recently "lost" a sensational Cross Country graduate this summer and now an assistant Cross County coach. I recently returned to Bakersfield in a wheelchair and feel cheated in not being able to visit with Bill as I thought he was in...

Dear Laurel and family, I was saddened to hear of Bill's passing. As a Highland High colleague for many years, I always found Bill to be such an up-beat person offering many pleasantries throughout the years. May God's comfort be with you. Dell-Louise Marsh
