*obituary
William C. “Shorty” Johnson, 70, passed into his heavenly home July 7, 2018. He was born in Camden, AR to George and Frances Johnson. Shorty was a heart attack survivor having survived seven heart attacks in the last twenty-nine years. Shorty worked at Lockheed Martin for thirty years retiring July, 2017 because his heart began to fail.
Survivors include his wife, Donna Doss Johnson; two sons, William “Cliff” Johnson and Chris A. Johnson of Camden, AR; a brother, Charles Robert Johnson and his wife, Valinda of Camden, AR and a sister, Patricia Jones of North Carolina. Shorty leaves behind a granddaughter, Chloe Jo Johnson whom he loved dearly. He also had a very soft spot in his heart for his great-niece, Paisley Thompson and his nephew, Dalton Jones. He also leaves behind a host of family and friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents; a sister, Marion Wilson Grice and a daughter-in-law, Kimberly Simpson Johnson.
While his family mourns his passing, they rejoice in knowing he’s now free of pain and safely at home with Jesus – and because of Jesus’ promise they rest knowing they will see him again.
Proctor Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements. Visitation will be 9:30 to 10:30 Tuesday, July 10, 2018 at Proctor Funeral Home followed by services at 10:30 and interment at New Hope Cemetery in Woodberry.
