We want to express our condolences to Evonne and the rest of the Johnson family. In high school, ,Ellis, my brother Paul ,Randy Offitt, and me , placed second as the NFA quartet at the state level. Ellis , later was part of the "Paramount Four", along with my oldest brother William, Caldwell Jenkins and Wallace Simpson, that cut their single record. We spent a lot of time together rehearsing, my Dad would give us pointers and sometime sing with us, that experience was very special and will be forever etched in my memory. He will be missed be the entire Turner Family. Rest In Peace Brother Ellis. Andrew Cornelius & Frances Turner
