Robert “Bobby” Johnson, age 65, of Biloxi, MS died Thursday, May 23, 2013.
Bobby was a Biloxi boy and loved the Gulf Coast every day. Near the water was where he felt at home and always enjoyed taking trips out to the island when he was younger. Bobby’s other favorite thing was playing and watching sports. He was a football star at Biloxi High School and went on to play for Perk, before joining the Marine Corps. Bobby was a honorable person and most loyal friend. His one and only girl was his daughter, Julie Mae and he would talk to her often and his best times were spent with her. Remember Bobby as that smiling, happy-go-lucky man with a loving heart that never failed to make you smile.
Bobby is preceded in death by his parents, Robert E. Johnson and Mattie Mae Fuller Johnson; and sister, Patty Sue Johnson Stubbs.
His survivors include his daughter, Julie Johnson; and three aunts, Lydia, Nannette and Rebecca.
