Johnny Dale Rosenbalm

Johnny was a life long Veteran. He first served his family, friends, and country by joining the U.S. Army in 1968 and would soon take a stand in the Vietnam War. He served there as Crew Chief aboard supply airplanes and received the Air Medal for his aviation service. He was honorably discharged as an E5 Sergeant. Johnny also served a lifelong career as controller/ engineer for many TVA steam plants and was deemed a professional at his job.

As he entered retirement, golf, mowing, landscaping, and caring for others would soon take over. Johnny

was a wonderful and caring son, he was a cherished brother, and he was “Uncle Johnny” to so many of us. He had numerous friends and was loved by everyone.
