A light from our househol is gone, A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home, Which never can be filled.
MR. HANEY "Fat Boy" JOHNSON, Jr. was born in Darlington County on May 6, 1917 a son of the late Haney, Sr. and Ollie Johnson. He entered the final resting place on Friday morning, June 1, 1993 in Wilson Hospital after a long illness.
He attended the Darlington County public schools. At an early age he was converted, baptized and joined Cheny Grove Baptist Church and remained a member throughout his life.
He was united in maniage to the former Miss Fannie Rhodes. This union was blessed with eight children of which a son and a daughter preceded him in death.
"Fat Boy", as he was affectionately called, lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for a number of years. While there he was employed at the University of Pennsylvania and was employed as a Maintenance Engineer until his retirement. In 1982 he returned home to Darlington and remained here until his passing.
He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and family member. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Otuuar'l {Coni 'J)
Those who shared the joys of life with him and survive to cherish his memory are: his loving wife, Mrs. Fannie R. Johnson of the home; six loving children, Mrs. Mary Ruth McKewn of Long Island, N.Y., Mrs. Fannie Artis of Philadelphia, Pa., Noah Lee Johnson, William (W.J.) Johnson both of Darlington, S.C., Eddie Lee Johnson of Avon Park, Fla. and James Johnson of Philadelphia, Pa.; two sisters, Mrs. Minnie Graham of Darlington, S.C. and Mrs. Addie Lide of Fayetteville, N.C.; sixteen grandchildren, ten great grandchildren, three daughters-in-law, two sons-in-law, three brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews and a host of other relatives and friends who regrets his passing.
Divine Master, grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love; for it is in giving tltat we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
TO THOSF. I L<..1VE
If I should leavr. you Whom I love to go along the silent way, Grieve not, nor speak of rne with tears,
But laugh and talk of r..'le as if I were beside you there.
And when you hear a song or ~ee a bird I loved, Please do not let the thought of ine be sad..... For I am loving you just as I always have..... You were so good to me!
There are so many things I ,,anted still to do.... So many things to say to you.... We cannot see beyond.... But this I know; I love you so.... 'Twas heaven here with you!
