WHEREAS, A life lived with joy and purpose drew to a close
with the passing of Roy Chester Johnson of Killeen on February 7,

WHEREAS, The son of Theron and Gail Johnson, Roy Johnson was
born in Fort Hood on March 25, 1963; he graduated from Ellison High
School, where he formed many lifelong friendships; dedicated to
helping his fellow citizens, he worked for the sanitation
department before joining the Killeen Fire Department; he was a

fireman; an animal lover, he was later employed as field supervisor
with the Animal Services Division of the Killeen Police Department
for 10 years until his retirement; he went on to drive a school bus
for the Killeen Independent School District, and his kindness made
him a great favorite with his young passengers; and

with his wife, Brenda; he was the proud father of 4 children, John,
Chad, Melissa, and Heather, and eventually, his treasured family
grew to include 12 grandchildren; in his free time, he loved to
visit his favorite place, Port Aransas, to watch dolphins, walk the
jetties, and do some deep-sea fishing; he enjoyed making people
laugh and playing pranks, and his warmth and honesty endeared him to
all; and
WHEREAS, Although Roy Johnson is deeply missed by those he
left behind, they will forever treasure their memories of his sunny
personality and his great devotion to his family and his community;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
