William Alan Johnson

A son, a husband, a father, a grandpa and a friend to all. William is preceded in death by his mother Kathleen Johnson. He is survived by his father Arthur Johnson, his wife Melissa Romero, his children Chavella Johnson, William Johnson, Carrissa Johnson (Fiancé Jonathan Martinez and Richelle Romero. His grandchildren Giselle Romero, Ariyah and Arianna Alvarado, Malachi Johnson, Kianna Onorato, Kyra Boss and the baby Sebastian Martinez.

Willie greeted everyone with a big smile and a hug. He enjoyed being around people, listening to music, fishing, bowling, camping, playing golf and softball, and he loved family time the most. He made every effort to show up and support his family, he loved watching his granddaughters wrestle and if you offered a listening ear he told you all about it. He treated everyone with compassion and love. If you ever needed help with anything, he showed up. He was a mechanic that everyone could count on, usually accepting a warm meal in placement of compensation. He was always prepared with a joke regardless of the situation, he loved making people laugh. Willie loved so fiercely and unapologetically, he will be missed by all that had the pleasure of knowing him.
