Johnney's obituary
I see. If "insane genus" is a term of endearment in the Williams family, we can certainly include it in the obituary. Here's a revised version that incorporates the term:
Johnney C. Williams, born on February 16, 1948, in Abilene, Texas, passed away on March 13, 2023. He was the firstborn son of Betty Pearl Robinson, whom he loved dearly.
Johnney served his country honorably as a member of the US Army. He dedicated himself to his duties and responsibilities, embodying the values of the armed forces. He exemplified discipline, courage, and unwavering commitment to his fellow soldiers and his country.
Johnney C. is survived by his two sons, Bryant and Terry, as well as his six brothers and one baby sister: Henderson, Henry, Glenn, Carl & Miyuki, Jerome, Betty, and Anthony. He was a loving and devoted father, brother, and son who will be deeply missed by his family and friends.
Throughout his life, Johnney C. had a determined passion for sports, teaching, learning, self-improvement, and military service. He remained active in his community, sharing his wisdom and inspiring others to follow their dreams. He was known in his family as an "insane genus" – a term of endearment that speaks to his unique intelligence, creativity, and sense of humor.
Johnney C.'s legacy will forever live on in the hearts and minds of those who knew and loved him. His courage under fire, dedication, and service will always be remembered and celebrated. He lived his life with a spirit of optimism, hope, and resilience, as captured in his favorite song, Sam Cooke's "A Change Is Gonna Come."
May Johnney C. rest in peace, knowing that he will never be forgotten.
