Johnny Lee Denson, leaves a legacy of love, laughter, and diligence with
his family and those who knew him. He left behind wonderful memories
and exemplary examples of a loving husband, father, grandfather, son,
and brother. We are grateful for each and every day we got to see his
smile, the lessons learned and all the jokes we shared.
Johnny was the son of Annie Ruth (Wilborn) Denson and Zell “Bo”
Jones. He was born September 22, 1979 in Barbour County, Alabama.
He graduated from Eufaula High School and furthered his education with
UTI in Houston, TX. His latest accomplishment was driving 18
wheelers. Prior to driving 18 wheelers, he worked with several
employers. However, he always treasured his employment with Solomon
Chevrolet, Medford Ford and Shelton Trucking. He was so proud of all
of his accomplishments; and he held his family together at any cost.
Johnny was always bursting with energy and laughter; he had a spirit that
would light up any room. He was a devoted, patient and unpredictable
man. His hobbies were riding dirt roads, racing, fishing, four wheeler
riding, and grilling for his family. He was the glue that held his family
together.
He was preceded in death by his grandmothers, Rosie Bell Malone
Wilborn and Mary Frances Allen Denson; two brothers, Freddie Denson
Jr and Gary Denson; grandfathers, William Wilborn and William
Denson.
Johnny will forever be cherished by his wife, children, mother, and
sisters. He leaves to cherish his memories; wife, Stephanie Gardner;
sons, Sidney (Alicia) Gardner, Quinton Kelly, Quinndarrius Kelly, and
Steve Lucious Jr; grandchildren, Khloe Gardner and Sidney Gardner Jr;
mother, Annie Ruth (Wilborn) Denson; father, Zell “Bo” Jones; sisters,
Gloria Denson and Melanie Denson; brother and sister-in-law, James and
Jenise Arrington; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and
friends. We will miss him more than words can express.
We love you J.D. Watch over us from Above!
