Nice story in July 10th Chesapeake Clipper on Glendon Howell

I now live in Greenville, NC.  I work @ East Carolina University where I'm also pursuing a master's in Instructional Technology. My three sons are grown....the oldest is married and lives in Asheville, NC. My middle son lives here in Greenville, has overcome cancer, and will be getting married in May to a real sweetheart.  My youngest son also lives in Greenville and is working on a degree in turf management...so he can play golf more. My schedule will probably not allow me to attend the reunion, but I did want to say hello and share my current information.   My best wishes to all,
 Bonnie McPhee Aimisley

Samuel T. Johnson
Chesapeake -- Samuel T. "Tommy" Johnson, 50, of the Deep Creek section of Chesapeake, passed away Saturday, June 16, 2007. Born in Norfolk, he was the son of Violet Tuttle and the late Brooks Johnson Sr. and the stepson of George "Jimmy" Tuttle. Tommy will be remembered as a highly skilled carpenter. An Eagle Scout with Troop 221, he was a recipient of the God and Country Award and member of the Order of the Arrow. He loved the outdoors, especially the local waterways and the crabs he caught there. Tommy will be remembered for the many well-trained dogs he had over the years. A devoted son, brother and uncle, he was quick to help anyone who needed his carpentry skills. In addition to his mother, Tommy is survived by his maternal grandmother, Rosa Toler of Chesapeake; his sister, Rebecca J. Lydens and husband Frank of Chesapeake; brothers, Brooks Johnson Jr. and wife Germaine Clair of Norfolk and Page S. Johnson II and wife Amy of Virginia Beach; his niece, Katelyn Lydens; nephews, Matthew Johnson, Coleman Johnson, Page S. "P.J." Johnson III and Evan Johnson as well as numerous cousins and relatives. A memorial service will be conducted at 11 a.m. Friday at the Great Bridge Chapel of Oman Funeral Home & Crematory, 653 Cedar Road, Chesapeake. The Rev. Robert K. Culpepper will officiate. The family will receive friends from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the American Cancer Society or the SPCA. The family would like to thank Comfort Care Hospice for the compassionate care and support given to Tommy and his family during his illness. Friends are invited to sign the online guest book at www.omanfh.com.
