Tommy Keith Johnson, 68, of Bonham, Texas passed away December 30, 2025, surrounded by family. Arrangements are under the loving care of Wise Funeral Home, Bonham, TX

Born on July 10, 1957, Keith spent his entire life on the land his family called home. A farmer and rancher by trade and by heart, he worked the same ground his parents and grandparents before him tended, carrying on a legacy of hardwork, stewardship and deep respect for the land. He believed in honest labor, early mornings, and doing things the right way even when it wasn’t the easy way. Those who knew Keith knew his quick wit, ability to entertain friends and family, and passion for collecting farm equipment and remnants of the past. He stood firm on his beliefs and lived life on his terms. He was happiest riding around in the old feed truck with his best friend, Penny, and his dogs checking cattle, working fields, fixing equipment, or simply watching the sunrise or set over the land he loved. Farming was more than a job to him— it was a way of life, one he was proud to pass on. Above all, Keith was devoted to his family. He valued time spent together, shared meals and traditions rooted in faith and family. His wisdom, work ethic and love will continue to guide those who knew him. 

Keith is survived by his devoted wife of 39 years, Penny Kay Johnson, his sister Paula Gayle Galyon, spouse John, his daughter Jennifer Dyan Morris, spouse Josh, son Eric Kyle Hutchins, spouse Sandy, son Cory Lance Hutchins, spouse A.J. His grandkids Kyla Mize, Cevan Hutchins, Preston Morris, Tatom Robinson, Chesney Robinson, and Konnor Hutchins. Great-Grandkids Charlie Hutchins and Edwin Mize.

He was preceded in death by his parents Billy Paul and Betty Maxine Johnson, brother Kenneth Wayne Johnson, daughter Becky Denise Johnson. A service will be held on January 5, 2025 at 12pm at the Bois d ’Arc Creek Cowboy Church, Bonham, Texas. Visitation will be held 2 hours prior to the service. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Hampton Cemetery or by simply by honoring his memory through hard work and care for the land. Keith’s legacy lives on in the soil he worked, the family he raised, and the lives he touched.
