It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Quinton Eugene "Big John" Johnson , a resident of Timberville, Virginia. He departed this life on Wednesday, October 1, 2025 at the age of 78. He drove for Pepsi Cola for many years where he developed his passion for the open road. Big John was known for his deep love and commitment to family. He also loved dancing with the love of his life Patsy Johnson, hunting, family gatherings, porch time, dances at the Moose as he was a life-long member and sharing many of his life stories. He also loved traveling the back roads, and knew better than anyone how to get from point A to point B up to the point of his trip in the ambulance to UVA due to construction delays. Only July 14, 1973, he married the love of his life, Patsy Johnson who preceded him in death on August 14, 2020. The celebrated 47 devoted years together.
