Samuel Harris Johnson, age 8, passed away on October 13, 2018, at his residence.
In the early morning hours of Saturday, God decided he needed Sam in Heaven. He was non-verbal with Autism with many other health issues, and despite these challenges, he never let that stop him from being the gentle laid-back sweet boy that he was. He had a love for his lil sister who was his best friend, cars, and hugs. His smile could brighten anyone’s day. His brief life left an impression on all who knew him. Though he could not talk his smile said it all.
Sam is survived by his mother, Stacy Johnson; his father, Daniel Johnson; his five siblings, Paige Johnson, Chase Johnson, Bella Johnson, Presley Johnson and Chapel Johnson all of El Dorado; and numerous other family from all over.
Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Monday at the Pentecostals of El Dorado with Rev. James Fout officiating. Visitation will be held from 10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. Monday at the church. Burial will follow at Pleasant Hill Cemetery under the direction of Young’s Funeral Directors.
Memorials may be made to the Northwest Elementary Special needs department.
