JOHNS                

         Floyd Johns, 91, passed away on Thursday May 2, 2019. He was born in Maxville, FL., to the late Preston and Dora (Carter) Johns. He was a veteran and served faithfully in the United States Army and then went on to serve with the United States Navy and was in the logging business. He was a member of the First Baptist Church of Maxville and had lived in Clay Hill most of his life. He is preceded in death by his brothers, L.C. Johns and Markerlee Johns, and grandson, Luke Johns.

The community of Clay Hill lost one of its last remaining heroes today. Floyd Johns will be sorely missed by all who knew him. He was the bedrock of his family; a loving husband devoted to his wife of 70 years, a steadfast father who always put his children’s needs ahead of his own, and a good friend to many. Godspeed Floyd. May you be in heaven long before the devil knows you have passed. We Love You.
