Amos Henry Johnson

JOHNSON, Amos Henry Our beloved dad passed away at the age of 83 on Friday, April 1, 2005. His death followed years of chronic lung complications, and they just couldn't function any longer. He was a native of Texas who moved to Sebastopol with his family over 60 years ago. His family owned much of the land in Sebastopol which is now known as Johnson St. He was the owner of Amos Appliance for over 30 years, and retired in 1979. However, long time customers continued to call and request his services for many years after his retirement. He was a life time member of the Cotati Rod & Gun Club, and also an Instructor for Gun Safety for the California Fish & Game Department for four decades as well. He and his wife Pauline (who preceded his death in 1986) were proud parents of their six children, who were all raised in Sebastopol. He is survived by all his children; Harvey Johnson (Linda), Cloverdale, Roselan and Kathy Johnson, Sebastopol, Mary Schafer (Richard), Sebastopol, Geri Tinagero (Terry), Santa Rosa, Susie Johnson (Kary), Santa Rosa; six grandchildren (Mark, Jessica, Robert, Wendy, Deanna and Sandy); six great grandchildren, sister Inez Oyler, OR; brothers Jim and Mike Johnson, OR; Ray Johnson, Clearlake, and Luther Johnson, Sebastopol; and numerous nieces and nephews.
