I grew up with his son James Randall Johnson. We have been friends for around 50 yrs. My wife and I are so sorry we did not find out about the service until after it happened. Wiley was a great husband, father and grandfather to all.
We have the whole family in our prayers and understand completely the sorrow in everyone's hearts due to the loss of such a kind human being. We will get together soon with Randy and Michelle. Wiley is still watching over all of us from above! Barry & Renee
