We were married in 1985 (35 Wonderful Years ago.) We have two Children (Rachel Hayes and William Johnson Jr.) They are both married. I am originally from Sacramento, CA. I finished High School In 1975 and immediately enlisted the USAF, where I served for 20 years. I retired as a Master Sergeant in March of 1996.

I taught Middle School Science for Omaha Public Schools (OPS) for 18 years. I retired from OPS (and teaching) in May of 2018. In July of 1994, while in the USAF, I found the Lord Jesus Christ, and received the Holy Ghost. I was Baptized in Jesus’ Name in September of 1994 at Bethel Christian Ministries in Bellevue NE.
