Our family would like to extend special thanks to Dr. Thames, his medical team, Covenant Medical ICU Team, and Nyki Maddigan. Their compassion and care for our dad was unbelievable and dignified. George Holton Johnson was born Jan. 27, 1945, in Lubbock, to Fay Isom (F.I.) and Ollie Faye Johnson. He was raised in Idalou and graduated from Idalou High School in 1963. George married his high school sweetheart, Jamie Elizabeth Jones, on Aug. 30, 1963, in Idalou. George's first love was the Lord and being a Pastor. He knew the true meaning of being a Pastor and not just a preacher. He had a deep love for his family and instilled in them his love and work ethic. He farmed in Idalou for 46 years with the help of his wife and children. He became an ordained deacon in 1972 and an ordained minister in 1979.
