King Edward Martin, 65, Cave City, KY

George Johnson Jr., 92, Green County, KY

 

George Johnson Jr., 92, was born on March 28, 1934 in Green County, KY to the late Willie Clarence Johnson and Rosie Taylor Johnson. He departed this life on Friday, May 1, 2026 at Ohio State University East Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.

 

Junior made a profession of faith in Christ at an early age. He served faithfully at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, actively singing in the Men’s Choir. He knew who Christ was to him and lived by that throughout his entire life. He would always say, “God has been good to me. Yes, God has been good to me. He has blessed me all these years because I treated people right.”

 

At an early age, he worked on a farm, which instilled a strong work ethic in him. He later worked for the Kentucky State Highway Department and retired after many years of service. All the while, he operated a lawn care service that he provided to his home church, other churches, and the community.

 

To know him was truly a blessing. If he saw you, you would always be greeted with a smile and conversation, always spreading the word of how good God has been. He also loved dressing to impress every day and always stayed sharp.

 

His daily routine often consisted of going to Walmart, where he would talk with people sitting in the everyday meeting spot or with people passing by while shopping, becoming a familiar face to many.

 

He loved going to church. He enjoyed listening to the band. He enjoyed spending time with his family. He especially loved Golden Corral.

Audrey will be remembered as a fierce woman. Sometimes that fierceness flared in the form of the infamous “Herron Temper” and other times radiated a love that was immensely deep and boundless.

 

She was also preceded in death by two sisters: Beulah Thomas, and Francis Graybeal.
