Shannon J. Johnson

Shannon J. Johnson, 47, of Savannah, GA, went to be with Jesus on January 10, 2020, where he reunited with his dad who recently passed away. He was a Christian and loved the Lord.

Shannon graduated from Groves High School in 1990, then went to pursue a degree in horticulture, where he graduated in 1995 from the University of Georgia. He most recently was a financial advisor at Mass Mutual.

He was a great friend to so many, with his contagious smile and whitty personality. He enjoyed boating and fishing out on the open waters, and had a strong love for sports, especially football. (Go Dawgs)
