Lindbergh C. Johnson, Jr, 75, of Providence Forge, VA, passed away on Friday, December 5, 2025.

He joined Little Elam Baptist Church at an early age and attended Ruthville High School. He was employed at Richfood in 1974 as a truck driver until his retirement in 2012. Lindbergh married the love of his life, Willie Jane Johnson, in June of 1976. He enjoyed spending time with his family and his beloved dog, Chico. His favorite hobbies were cutting wood, being on his tractor, and enjoying anything he could find to do outdoors. He was kindhearted-a gentle giant who would do anything to help anyone.

Lindbergh was preceded in death by his loving wife, Willie Jane; his parents, Lindbergh and Elizabeth Johnson; his brother, brother Erskin "Cornell" Johnson and brother-in-law/dear friend Allen "Hippo" Cotman.
