Barry Johnson

Barry Devour Johnson was born on April 16th, 1957 and went home to be with the Lord on January 17th, 2024. He was born in Sallisaw, Oklahoma and resided in the Rocky Mountain community for most of his life near Stilwell, OK. Barry is survived by his loving wife Kathy Johnson, and his three children: Jeromy and wife Jody Johnson, Mistie and husband Travis Pack, & Holly and husband Chris Stilwell. He is survived by his sister Penny Bode and husband Lannie. He is survived by grandchildren, Chase and wife Emma Johnson, Tye Johnson and Heather Casey, Cole Johnson and fiancé Kayla Harp, Kinley Johnson, Abby Ellis, Adrianna Ellis, Cobie Grace and husband Garrett Graham, Slade and wife Lauren Bunch, Hunter Pack, Gauge Pack, Talib Mink, Gavin Stilwell, and Cali Stilwell. He is also survived by great grandchildren Sutton Michelle Casey Johnson, Kawliga Creek Johnson, and baby Johnson number three who is on the way. He was preceded in death by his parents Henry and Margaret Johnson, his infant son, his brother Russell Johnson, his nephew Jacob Shane Patterson and his great grandson Creek Tyler Johnson. Barry was an active member of Briggs Free Holiness Church pastored by Shawn Petree and family. One of Barry’s greatest desires was that he would see all of his kids, grandkids, and great grandkids in heaven.

Barry was a man who never met a stranger. He was a man who found joy in pestering anyone who would let him. He had big opinions, but he also loved big. You could always find him supporting his kids and grandkids, whether it be helping raise pigs for the pig show, cheering them on from the side lines or bleachers at a ball game, or helping them build or fix anything they needed. He took the title of great grandpa or big poppy very seriously loving every moment he could spend with his great grand babies. Another place you could always find him is wherever Kathy was, he never went too far from her. Barry enjoyed anything in the outdoors; hunting, fishing, or camping. He loved to take vacations with as many of the family as he could get to go. Some of his favorite places to go were western Oklahoma, Colorado, the National Parks in Wyoming/Montana and the white sandy beaches of Panama City. Barry will be missed greatly and we will never forget him. He was greatly loved.
