David Lee Johnson 10/6/1940 - 12/4/2020

After a long illness, David is finally free of pain and anguish. He retired from Arkla gas company in 1995 as a Vice President after serving 20 years. David is preceded in death by his mother, Kathleen Perrin and father, Joe Johnson. Grandfather, Clarence (Bear)Speer and Grandmother Bess Speer. David loved fiercely in this order: his son, his close friends, his dogs (Sam - the first of many Labradors) and Zeb his last Lab.

He enjoyed spending time with his young son and his son’s friends. After his son (Darren) and his friends started their band in high school - Living Sacrifice - David was the primary supporter of their efforts and made it possible for them to travel around the country and tour promoting their band. His favorite hobby was deer hunting and he enjoyed many a weekend and holiday with family and friends hunting and taking in the great outdoors and the natural beauty of Arkansas. Survivors are son, Darren and Darren’s wife, Ruth Johnson.
