Randy Gerald Johnson

Randy Gerald Johnson ran into the arms of his Saviour on Saturday April 11th, 2026. He was born on February 5, 1950, to Frank and Nannie Swaim Johnson.

He graduated from John Wesley College in Greensboro and received a master’s degree from Asbury Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. Randy's life from age 23 was spent devoted to serving Jesus Christ through spoken word, music and acts of service. He was a true example of how Jesus can turn a life around. Randy served as pastor of Forsyth Friends Meeting and East Bend Friends Meeting while also working as an information technology contractor at Wachovia Bank and Kaplan Early Learning. He also served as an interim music director for Old Town Baptist and Calvary Baptist Church.

Randy was preceded in death by his parents: his father and mother-in-law, E.L. and Gladys Edwards, and his sister Carol Robertson.

He is survived by his wife of almost 51 years Bonnie Edwards Johnson; his precious daughter, Amy Grande and her husband Phil, who was like another son; their children Tyler, Ryan, and Ashley, and "adopted grandson" Erind from London. He also leaves his son and friend Jonathan and his wife Beth who he loved and their children Silas and Della; also surviving are his special nephews, Mitch Robertson, Michael and Dawn Brann and David and Katie Brann, as well as in-laws Jo and Ike Brann; two aunts Sadie Weavil and Janette Stoneman and of course, all his special music friends who brought so much joy to his life and allowed him the opportunity to share that joy with others.

Visitation will be held on Saturday, April 18, 2026, from 6:00-8:00 PM at Hayworth Miller Funeral Home in Lewisville. A Celebration of Life service will be held on Sunday at 3:00 PM at Calvary Baptist Church on Peace Haven Road with dear friend Richard Hardee officiating.

A special thank you to Nurse Amanda and all the wonderful people at Trellis Hospice whose help allowed Randy to stay in his home until he left for his Heavenly home.

Flowers will be graciously accepted, or memorials may be made to Trellis Supportive Care (www.trellissupport.org).

Randy's life can be summed up by the song "The Love of God"
