My heart goes out to the family of "Big" Bill Johnson. He used to come over to my house and play his guitar and sing to my children back in the 70's before he moved to Texas. I am also a cousin. Mary Roller was my mother. Bettie Lamb

My regards to "Big Bill's" family. I worked at Fultz recording Studio in Fairdale in the 70's, and Bill was always a favorite. I have one of his records, "Don't Close Durrett Down". He will be missed.
