Robert Lee Johnson
In Loving Memory
Robert Lee Johnson
November 14, 1947 – February 5, 2026
With deep respect and heartfelt sorrow, the life of Robert Lee Johnson is remembered and honored. A proud American, he lived with unwavering dedication to family, community, and country.
Born in Kansas City, Missouri, Robert grew up with a strong sense of duty and patriotism. He served his nation with honor, embodying the values represented by the American flag—freedom, courage, and unity.
After his military service, Robert pursued higher education and graduated from Pittsburg State University. He went on to build a successful career as an electrician, a trade he took great pride in.
Robert was known for his kindness, integrity, and love for life. Above all, he was a devoted husband, father, and Papa, cherishing every moment spent with his beloved wife, Judy Johnson, his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
A true car enthusiast, Robert had a lifelong passion for Mustangs, finding joy in their power, design, and the freedom they represented. He owned a Mustang of his own, which he took great pride in maintaining and showcasing. His love for cars extended beyond the garage—he enjoyed participating in car shows, where he shared his enthusiasm with fellow car lovers and made lasting friendships along the way.
Robert is survived by his loving wife, Judy Johnson; his two children, Pete Johnson and Amanda (Kenny) Smith; his brother, Corky (Pat) Johnson; and his sister, Debbie Johnson-Freeman. He is also survived by his five cherished grandchildren, Rayson (Katie) Johnson, Dacy Crockett, Dage Crockett, Hannah Johnson, and Joseph Marshall; his five great-grandchildren, Reagan Johnson, Braylen Johnson, Paxton Johnson, Montana Morrell, and Magnolia Morrell; and his three bonus great-grandchildren, Astrid Smith, Cain Smith, and Freya Smith.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Dorothy (Hershey) Johnson and Robert Johnson.
A memorial service will be held on February 14th at 2:00 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Oronogo in Oronogo, Missouri. The ceremony will include military honors and the presentation of the American flag in recognition of his service and devotion to the nation.
May the stars and stripes forever wave in remembrance of a life lived with honor, love, and pride.
