Michael Johnson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 9, 2023.
Michael J. Johnson (Dude) passed away peacefully in his sleep on May 10th 2023 at home in Citrus Heights where he resided for 42 years. He was 70 years old. He was the youngest of three kids. He attended La Sierra High School and later enlisted in the Navy. Dude was a quiet person with a heart of gold. He could always make you laugh with his dry sense of humor. He never married or had kids, but was loved by his nieces and nephews. He always gave the best gifts at Christmas. He is survived by his brother (Gary Johnson) and sister (Sue Martin) and nieces and nephews: Derek, Chad, Brian, Dawn, Ella, Autumn, Cameron, Addi, Emma, Ollie and Gus. He is preceded in death by his loving Dad (Bernie) and Mom (Elizabeth). Life goes on but will never be the same. You will be missed more than you know. WE LOVE YOU DUDE.. R.I.P.

P.S. Carrot cake will always be a special treat for us..

Sue Martin
