Obituary for Clifford "Red" Johnson Sr.

Red, as all that knew him called him, lost his ongoing battle to multiple
myeloma, a blood cancer. on Saturday, January 18, 2020, at Hospice of the
Sacred Heart in Dunmore at the age of 87.
He was the youngest son of Harry and Mabel Johnson and was raised in Tunkhannock.
Red was a well-known new and used car salesman including owning three local
used car lots. He loved his sports, especially horseracing, which he owned
several race horses at local racetracks. He enjoyed his life to “his" fullest.
He was preceded in death by his first wife Nancy; his first born son Clifford Jr.;
his parents; his brothers: George, Harry, Charlie & Arthur. and his sisters:
Edna, Ella & Gheri.
He is survived by sons: Harry and wife Diane, John and wife Cathy; daughters:
Bernice and companion Andy, Mary Jo and husband Jeff, Alexis and husband Jonathon;
second wife Geraldine; and his companion Marge Esgro.
Red's family would like to thank Dr. Randall Brundage, Dr. Kishori Veerabhadrappa.
and the entire staff at Hematology & Oncology Associates of NEPA on Meade Street
in Dunmore for their excellent care that extended his life for years... Thank You!
... and also a special thank you to Hospice of the Sacred Heart for his excellent
end of life care.
The family will have a private ceremony in the near future at his gravesite.
