Joshua Patrick

Johnson Sr.

Our family is navigating the weight of the loss of Joshua Johnson Sr. Josh was born on July 9, 1990, in Decatur, Illinois. Sadly, he passed away on March 1st , 2026, in Reidsville, GA.

Family was everything to Josh. He was a gifted cook who brought a little spice to many tables at our family gatherings. He was always up for a good game of spades, a friendly, albeit lively game of spoons, or a quiet movie night with his boys.

Joshua was preceded in death by his father: John Johnson, Aunt Margie, and Uncle Jodie (Cat). Left to mourn him are his 2 boys Joshua Johnson Jr, Jaxon Johnson, and his mother Janet Johnson, brothers: Jalen Johnson (Hailey), John C Johnson, Brandon Johnson (Chantal), Robert Gerdes, Jeremy Gerdes (Shannon), Jonathan Gerdes (Christie), and sister Susan Chambers (Ray), Aunt Barb (Jerry), Aunt Judith, Uncle Damien, Uncle Tyrone (Tamika) and Uncle Donald. Nieces: Jurnei, Elissa, Hannah, Lakiyah, Brianna, Emma and his Jerzey girl. Nephews: Christian, Jonny, Decklan, Jacob, Peyton, Cameron and Julian. Josh is also survived by a host of cousins and great nieces and nephews whom he cared for deeply.

Memorial Services will be held at 11:00 a.m., Monday, March 16th, 2026 at New Life Church, 16252 GA-144, Richmond Hill, GA 31324.
