Deon Johnson was a devoted husband, loving father, proud business owner, and a man whose presence brought joy wherever he went. As the owner of Always Trucking Enterprises, he worked tirelessly to provide for his family and build a life rooted in purpose and perseverance.

He had a generous heart and a deep commitment to his community, always giving, supporting, and uplifting others. Deon was also the life of the party, never missing a chance to celebrate, laugh, and bring people together. His joy was contagious, and his love was felt deeply by all who knew him.

To his family, Deon was strength, partnership, and unwavering love. Though he is no longer with us, his spirit lives on in every shared memory, every celebration, and every life he touched.

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever celebrated.
