I'm his grandson and I don't remember him but I've always wanted to know what he's like. God bless you Granny, Daddy, Aunt Latoice, Uncle Vincent, Uncle Victor, Briana, Kevin, Uncle Robert and all grandpa's friends and family

Growing up in the N.E. corner of the Nickel, Howard was the cool, calm, gentle giant who I don't think too many people would want to cross. I remember him as one of those guys you would want to have near if you ever got in a fix. My love and condolence to the family.

I pray that you have a sense of peace during this time.

Howard, LaToice, Victor & Vincent my thought and prayers are with you during this time.. Forever cherish the memories of your wonderful father.
Peace & Blessings,
Regina Nichols & Family

If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We'd express all our unspoken love;
We'd have countless things to say.

If we could bring you back again,
We'd say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.

If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You'd know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.

Prayers and condolences to our friends the Howard Johnson family. Howard was a childhood friend and a member of the neighborhood we grew up in. Howard was a great person, family oriented. I rode though the neighborhood just the other day, he said hello and of course he made me laugh. God Bless the Johnson Family you are in our Prayers.

I have known the Johnson family most of my life. Robert and I were classmates since Atherton Elementary. I thought of Howard as one of the big brothers of the neighborhood, who looked out for us. He was one of the good guys. May God grant the Johnson family His peace in the days ahead.
