Gary Johnson

Gary was a proud graduate of Valley High School's class of 1974, where he was a talented 3rd baseman. He had a passion for sports, particularly for his beloved Louisville Cardinal's. His vibrant personality made him a unique and cherished individual. He enjoyed fishing, a friendly game of pool and had an impressive knowledge of world history and music. Gary could "name that tune" in one note. His playful spirit was evident in the nicknames he lovingly bestowed upon friends and family. One of Gary's unfulfilled dreams was to witness the northern lights, a testament to his sense of adventure and wonder. Gary left an inspiring legacy.
