David Johnson worked to provide for his family. Every choice he made rested on the ability to put food on the table, shoes onto feet and jeans onto little legs. This book is only a glimpse of his life and accomplishments and cannot be considered exhaustive in any sense, but it is real. These stories come from a life of experiencing the world. Its ups and downs, its joys and sorrows. My intent is to capture memories, stories and glimpses of David Johnson’s life and of the family he loves to share it with. On January 25th 2011 David will be 95 years old and you can be sure that stomachs will be full and that the banjo and guitars will fill the room with celebration!
