I had the privilege to work with Dr. Johnson for many years at St. Marys Hospital. He was one of a kind and will surely be missed by many. My sincerest sympathies to his family and friends.
I worked with Dt. Johnson at Saint Marys Hospital. He was one who you respected and in turn he respected others as well. A good and dedicated person.
