Michael's obituary

Michael Dean Johnson Jr., born on February 1st, 1997 in Elkton, Maryland, was taken from our world due to a vehicular crash on March 1st, 2024. Mikey lived a short 27 years, but those years will forever be cherished dearly.  He continues to live his legacy through his wife Joslyn Johnson, and his two beautiful children, Jameson Michael Johnson (10mths) and Kalia Lynn Johnson (4 y/o). His mother Renee Johnson, his younger twin brothers Brett & Garrett Johnson, and his oldest sister Paige Williams. He now may forever rest with his predeceased family members, his father Michael Dean Johnson Sr. and his grandfather William G. Morse Sr. Anyone who knew Mikey knows how his bright smile and charisma could lift your spirit. He is a loving husband and selfless father, who made sure his children knew they could always count on him to be ready to play. He is a great friend, who would bend over backwards for those who needed his support. He made an effort to always show up even in time of his own distress. He made sure to smile and say hello to everyone he passed by, even when it was harder to hold that smile. His kindness and sense of humor has always made him a good spirit to be around. 

Due to the unexpected reality of this nature, we are sadly opening our hearts to settle his eternal resting; cremation and memorial service. Michael and his wife made plans of being cremated, with ashes planted as trees beside each other; their 7 year anniversary of marriage falls on the 27th of March, making the month extremely difficult to bear. With this cremation, he will quite literally be forever carried by those he loved, and those who loved him. We open our arms with warmth and gratitude to you for taking the time to read this and appericate every kind message to the family.

We extend a huge thank you to the Todd County Fire Deptartment, EMTS, and all agencies involved with treating the children in their care. Our hearts are out to you for your kindness and endless endurance of tolerating such events.
