Rickey Harold "Rick" Johnson
Nov 4, 1954 - Feb 15, 2015
Posted by: Jo Aguirre
Rickey Harold Johnson
was born November 4, 1954, in Newport, Arkansas, and passed away on
February 15, 2015, at the age of 60, in Moore, Oklahoma.
Rick was raised and
went to school in the area of Newport/Grubbs, Arkansas; and after
graduation, served a term in the U.S. Navy. During that period of time,
he married Shelby Davis and they had one son, Rickey Harold (JR)
Johnson, Jr.
After his service in
the Navy, he started driving cross country, which turned out to be one
of his life’s passions, and continued to drive for different companies
up until his health forced him to retire.
While working for
Consolidated Freightway, in 1989, Rick moved to OKC where he met and
married Jacinda Dye-Johnson in 1990. Of the marriage were born two
children, Talonne Sahara Chardeau Johnson, 17; Mylan Hyhill Johnson, 12;
and Rick adopted Paris Whitney Johnson, 28, on August 7, 2000.
Rick was a devoted
husband, father and papa. And although he wasn’t an avid sports fan, he
enjoyed attending his children and grandchildren’s sports activities and
cheering them on. Though the last few years his illness had slowed Rick
down, you could catch him in his “Man Cave” reading his books and
playing with his granddaughter, Rowyn Avery Douglas, 3.
When possible, Rick
loved to travel to Baytown to visit his son JR, daughter-in-law Candace,
and his oldest grandchildren, Brooke Leanne, 19; Mason Tate, 17; and
Kayla Marie, 12.
