Billy Johnson, Jr., 92, of Quincy, FL, peacefully departed this earthly life on Sunday, July 6, 2025, in Tallahassee, FL.

Born and raised in Quincy, he accepted Christ at an early age and was a devoted member of Old Bethel AME Church, where he served faithfully until his health no longer permitted. He was educated in the Gadsden County Public School System and proudly served in the United States Army. Following his military service, he returned home to work with the Gadsden County School System’s Maintenance Department.

Known for his love of fishing, hunting, and making people smile, Mr. Johnson found great joy in the outdoors. After retiring, he spent much of his time fishing at Lake Talquin, where his passion became well known and embraced by many in the local fishing community.
