Mr. Frank Johnson Jr.

October 24, 1930 - December 18, 2016

On December 18, 2016, God called Frank Johnson, Jr. home from labor to reward. He was born October 24 1930 in Bessemer, AL. He was the only child of Mr. Frank Johnson, Sr. and Ms. Jessie Calhoun-Smith. Frank was a long-time member of Galilee Baptist Church, who loved the Lord and encouraged everyone around him to trust in the Lord at all times. His favorite scripture was Psalm 23:1, "The Lord is my Shepard, I shall not want". He served in the United States Army, and was stationed in Germany. Frank was a proud military veteran who gave of himself to defend his country, He was employed with the United States Postal Service, and retired after many years. Frank had many interests that included taking care of his lawn. He enjoyed playing the drums, working on word search puzzles, visiting nursing homes, watching soap operas and listening to jazz. Frank also loved watching football, which was his favorite sport. Frank was a quiet, generous man with a love that surpassed, who you were or weren't as a person. His only concern was if you needed help and how he could help you. Mr. Frank Johnson is preceded in death by his mother, Jessie Mae Calhoun; father Frank Johnson Sr.; a daughter, Mary Frances Johnson and a dear friend, Mr. Herman Stewart. He leaves to cherish in his memory: 2 sons, Larry Heard and Danny Johnson; 1 daughter, Tracey Calligton; 2 step-daughters, Sarah Mae Pratt (Jamie) and Rosie Griffin; a dear friend, Betty Fuller; and a host of grandchildren, great grandchildren, cousins and friends. It's hard for many to believe we lost a strong soldier. But, God has and will always know best. God gave Frank to us in many ways. As a son, father, grandfather, great grandfather and best friend.
