My sincere condolences to the family. I was sadden to hear of Lion passing. I will always remember the days growing up together in the west end.
My sincere condolences to the family of Mr. Johnny (Lionel)Johnson. May GOD sustain you in your time of sorrow. A gentle giant has left this earth but he will never leave our hearts.

May Almighty Father God bless and comfort the family 💖💖 and strengthen the family 🙏❤️
It is never easy saying final good-byes to family and friends, and Lion were like both to us from the Westend. Many share memories of him on both levels growing up as Teens to Adulthood from the Westend neighborhood. His nonchalance character was often expressed when he found himself speechless to something he refuses to part take in by saying, "it is what it is" followed by an outburst of laughter. May you laughter live on. Johnny Lee Johnson, AKA Lion, "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" 2 Corinthians 5:8. You will be Truly Missed!

53 years ago, you took my mom to Tuskegee so she could give birth to me. When I became a Teen your exact words to me were "Don't get into all that ole gang mess with then Boys" Fortunately, no one out of the Westend turned to Gangs. You showed me how to talk to people, I needed to talk to, to get where I wanted to be.... And when I had a minor set back in 1995, YOU set me up for a major comeback. Thank You for helping teach me the Ropes Unk. See you on the other side. Much Love! Rest In Peace. Chico
