Johnny worked various jobs, prior

servant of God.

On December 11, 1976, he mar-
ried his best friend, Sheba Peter-
son; together they raised 11 chil-
dren, including his sister, Earline

Kytwana. Johnny and Sheba were
a team in raising their children
and spreading the gospel. He was
passionate about ministering to
the whole person.
