Harold Wayne Johnson

July 8, 1940 — May 8, 2021

Harold Wayne Johnson, 80, of Milledgeville, departed this life Saturday, May 8, 2021 at St. Frances Hospital in Bartlett.

The husband of Shirley Lee Wilbanks, whom he married on August 31, 1973 in Horn Lake, MS, he worked as an offset printer and was part owner of K & J Printing in Somerville. He retired in 2005 from Copywright Graphics. He was born Monday, July 8, 1940, in McNairy County, son of the late Aaron Zee Johnson and Ira Meeks Johnson. He was well known as a faith-based man of God, having a 'God filled faith', and enjoyed watching John Wayne movies, mowing, especially on his John Deere mower, making others laugh and being around his grandchildren. He dearly loved his family and his wife, whom he considered his 'entire world', and could often be found in his 'prayer closet' which was his shed. He had the reputation for giving the shirt off his back for anyone who needed it and was a member of Hope Apostolic Church in Bartlett.
