My condolences to the Johnson family. Dowell was a great friend and coworker for many years. I will miss him so much. God Bless the family.

I was deeply saddened when I heard that Donell had passed on. Back in 1998, I received a phone call from Paul Collander, the San Diego Sector Manager. He highly recommended that I pick this outstanding young man by the name of Donell Johnson for a position in the LA Regional Office. I retired a couple of years ago and was very fortunate that the last seven years were working for Donell. I worked for and with many wonderful people in my more then 50 years with the FAA and Donell inspired me more then any other. He was truly a great human being. My condolences to his family and friends. Rest In Peace my good friend.

My deepest and sincere condolences to Dee´s sons, extended family and friends. My heart goes out to you all. Dee was a man of great character and integrity. The world is already not the same without him in it. May God rock you all in the cradle of His loving arms, May He comfort you all and give you the strength you all need to face your todays and tomorrow´s. Rest in Peace and in heavenly places. Fly high, you are free.

My condolences to his family.
We all grew up together and we all hung out together throughout the years. He was a big brother to me. He will be missed dearly. Memories we shared will never die. Love you my Brother

Lifting the entire family up in prayer. I met Donell about 8/9 years or so ago as we both worked at the RO in Fort Worth. We connected right away. Our Chicago roots, love of the Chicago Bears and big hearts always wanting to help others. We kept in touch after he went back to CA. We would send funny memes, jokes, high fives after games, and updates about our kiddos. He shared a video of him, his son and the family during his son's going away celebration as he left for the Navy. Donnell was so proud and had the biggest smile on the video (which I still have). He spoke about his brother (retired) who was coming to help him as he recovered from one of the surgeries during the pandemic. We spoke after the passing of his beautiful mom who he now gets see and hug again. Donell had the biggest heart and a beautiful spirit. We truly lost a good one, but God gained the best. I will always remember Donell as a great man, great father, great worker and most of all great human. Prayers for strength for the family.

Words cannot express just how sad I am to know Donell has transitioned from this life. While I know he is now at rest I will certainly miss being able to connect with him the way we did. He was a gladiator who saw Beauty in many things! To know him was to love him.
Johnson family I am sending many prayers and hugs your way.
Beyond everything we may be feeling in this moment- we know he is no longer suffering and with that we can rejoice.

Rest now Dee. See you Next Lifetime!
