June 5, 2008 - Happy Birthday Randy

June 5, 2007 - Randy's 60th birthday. Happy Birthday Randy. We miss you.

Jaquetta & Family

We extend our deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Jacquetta,



My deepest sympathy is extended to you and to your family. After days ended at Maggie L. Walker, our paths crossed again in Maryland when we were neighbors while Randy attended law school at Howard Univ. You cared for my son while I worked, and I often found him being entertained by Randy when I came to pick him up. Many years passed before our paths crossed briefly again when I was in Richmond, but I have often remembered fondly those days as neighbors. May you find peace and comfort in the love of friends and family that surround you, and in the love of God who sustains you.

Dear Jacquetta and Family,

My friendship with Randy dates back to 7th grade at Carver Elementary School. He was always a gentleman and a scholar with a great sense of humor. My deepest sympathy go out to you and your family during this very difficult period. Keep the faith and remember the good times. The service today was lovely!!!!!!!!!!!!

I served on a jury with Judge Johnson presiding. The case was a medical malpractice involving the death of a high school boy. The entire jury was impressed by Judge Johnson's even handedness, fairness, willingness to listen, and even good humor in a difficult case. The jury hung and the Judge was very understanding. The one thing that the jury was unanimous on was that Judge Johnson was the best Judge any of us every worked with and that if any of us were ever to go before a judge, as either defendant or plaintiff, we would like to have Judge Johnson presiding.

Quetta, Randy Jr., Kevin et al,



You are in our thoughts and Prayers. Hold to God's unchanging hands and he will provide the solace and comfort that you will need to get through this difficult time and loss of your loved one.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

To the Johnson Family, we send our deepest sympathy during this time of mourning. We will keep you in our prayers. Love to Randy and Zelda from Sharon and Kenny

Please accept our deepest sympathy.Our prayers are with your family! Alan & Rita Foster

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Dear Mrs. Johnson and family, I was shocked and saddened to learn of Judge Johnson's untimely death. I have always had such admiration for him - his demeanor, his intellect and his courtesy for all who appeared before him. He has been a great role model not only for the bench and bar, but for all those who appeared before him. He will be sorely missed. Sincerely,

The last time I saw you and Randy, he was pushing one of the twins in the swinger at the playground. We were neighbors on Hawthorne and classmates at MLW. When learned of his death, I was first "shocked" then deeply saddened. If I had not read and saw his obituary for myself, I would not have believed it. However, it has to be comforting to know he was so well loved and respected, and will be sorely missed. May God give you strength and peace in the days ahead.

May he forever walk with the Angels.

Our deepest sympathy is with you during your time of loss. Judge Johnson will be missed by all here at Zwerdling, Oppleman & Adams.

My thoughts and prayers are with the

Johnson family.

Jaquetta,



My deepest sympathy is extended to you and your family. There are no words other than STUN that can be expressed at this moment to let you know how hearts were broken to have seen the notice of Randall. It is times like these that are so hard to understand. Yet we truly believe that God knows best and that Randall has met him in eternal and peaceful rest. He will forever be close to you within your heart. We will all miss him. God Bless you always!!!

Jacquetta,



What a shock it was to see Randy's face in the obituary announcement. Just the weekend before last I was in Richmond for our high school reunion, asking for you. We missed you, did not know what you were about to go through.



Raymond told some humorous stories about the Judge, but I did not know him as such. I knew Randy going all the way back to Sunday school class at All Souls Presbyterian Church; I recall that he showed the seeds of being a good lawyer then through his debates with our Sunday school teacher. I am proud to read the tributes to the man he became.



I pray for spiritual comfort for you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Mrs. Johnson and Family:



I am so sorry for your loss--a loss we all share. Judge Johnson was an excellent judge and an even better man. His life was marked by humility, kindness, and friendliness. He had a real zest for what he did. Richmond will miss him.

You are in my prayers at this time of sorrow.

To the Johnson Family, I would like to send very heartfelt condolences to your family. I met you all some years ago when Kevin (KJ) was a member of the Hampton University Football team. He and your entire family was always a special part of our family at Hampton especially the Pirate football team. May you continue to keep the faith and know that God does not make mistakes. KJ remember to look unto the hills from whence cometh your help. My prayers and thoughts are with your family always.

Randy, Mrs. Johnson and family,



My mother, Catherine Young, remembers how kind, sincere and compassionate your father was in her interactions with you and your parents at Henderson Middle School. And also, I share memories of Parents Weekend at W&M when I was Dean. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Zelda, your mother and all of your family.

Judge Johnson was a kind but strong person. He was fair and dispensed justice with an even hand. He was a great leader in all facets of his life and career, including the Bench and Bar. We will miss Judge Johnson but we will not forget him.

Jacquetta and Family

My deepest sympathy is with you and your family during this time, Randall will be greatly missed by every that he touched. Keep faith in God and he will strengthen your heart and your family. He was a great man and friend to all.

Jaquetta,



Needless to say, I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of Randy's passing. At our 40th Class Reunion last weekend we all missed you and were told that Randy was not well...we had no idea it was serious. His passing is a real loss to all of us who knew him. Please know that your fellow classmates are praying for you and your family in your time of grief. May your memories comfort you, and may you find peace in the caring of those who walk with you through this difficult time. God Bless!

To Mrs. Jaquetta Johnson and Family,

It was a pleassure to know Judge Johnson, the great parent and supporter of his son's school. May the Lord comfort you now and give you strength to face the future.

Randy & Zelda,



Our hearts and prayers are with you during your moments of sorrow.



May God Bless you and the rest of the family.

Mrs. Johnson, Randy, and Kevin. It was 1989 when I first met your father and husband at the Campus of William and Mary on one of our parent weekends. His demeanor and character shined upon our first meeting and influenced my life professionally and personally from that day forward. He will truly be missed. Crystal and I send out our sincerest sympathies and pray that God will strengthen you and comfort you in your loss. Love, Thomas and Crystal

I am deeply sorrow of Randy's death.I was unaware of his illness and my deepest condolences are offered at this most sorrowful time.Over the past several years,I have not kept in touch because I too have suffered several tragedies-- the death of my husband Donald on the exact date of August 18 in 2001. I have just returned last week from a trip to South Africa, where I work with township science and mathematics teachers. This is very taxing work which I am sure you can imagine.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I thank God for the opportunity He has given me to know and work with Judge Johnson. He was such a GREAT person. He will truly be missed here at Richmond Circuit Court. To the family, may God strengthen you during this time. Lovingly, Cecelia

Jacquetta, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I will be in prayer for you and the family that each of you may be able to endure during this time in your lives.

I met Randy in grade school where his Mom was Assistant Principal. He was a friendly,fun-loving,kind and studious person....he never changed.

He will be missed. I pray God's blessings for his family.

Dear Jacquetta and Family,



Randy and I were childhood friends and high school classmates. Through the years it was thrilling to read about his marriage to you, his career successses and the family that the two of you created. Glad we were able to talk briefly at the last MLW class reunion. I am deeply saddened by his passing. May God bless you and give you peace.

Sincerely,

Judge Johnson was the prototype of what a judge ought to be. He was fair, balanced, reasonable, and intelligent. That sense of humanity, touched with humor, that is so essentual to the correct resolution of affairs was a gift he possessed in abundence. The legal community, indeed the citizens of Richmond, will miss him.

Bill Shields

My deepest sympathy. May God strengthen you in this time of sorrow. Former employee of Hill, Tucker & Marsh.

To the Johnson Family,

It is very sad to learn of our fellow M.L.Walker High School class of 1964’s departure from this earth. Having known Randall since our days in our high school cadet corp right through our last class reunion in 2004, he was totally a class act. Some of my fondest memories will always be of the fun we shared over the years. Whenever I hear anyone sing “Here comes the judge” (this is how we greeted Randall at class reunions), I will smile warmly and think of my friend Randall.



M.L.Walker Class of 1964

Jacquetta, Randy,Jr., Kevin and Family: I pray that God will give each of you the strength to handle this loss, and that you will take comfort in the love of your family and friends.

You have my deepest sympathies. Judge Johnson was a scholar and a gentleman, and it was a pleasure to appear before him in court. His wry wit and calm demeanor were a welcome reminder to all attorneys of how this profession should be practiced. He will be deeply missed by the legal community.
