Johnnie Lee Loudermilk, Jr.

Johnnie Lee Loudermilk Jr. was born on June 3rd, 1950, in Emmitt, Arkansas to the proud parents of Johnnie Lee Loudermilk Sr. and Fannie Mae Thompson. He spent his childhood years on the farm in Emmitt, Arkansas and later moved to Los Angeles, CA. After graduating from Freemont High, he landed a job at Holiday Meat Company, where he worked as a butcher for over 40 years. He was kind hearted, caring, and an outgoing man who treated everyone with respect. Johnnie was the type of individual who was willing to put others needs and wants before his own, if it meant others would be happy. However, he did things his way. Many people thought of him as a good guy.

Johnnie enjoyed life and was a pleasure to be around, his smile and laughter gathered him friends and always caught the ladies’ eyes. He loved the Dallas Cowboys and the Los Angeles Lakers. When sitting back relaxing, he enjoyed watching Sci-fi shows and boxing matches. He loved delicious BBQ ribs, steak, catfish, shrimp, and more ribs! Johnnie had an extreme passion for fishing. He was a great fisherman, his skillset brought him excitement and notoriety, but most of all, peace and happiness.

Johnnie was known for so many things in life, things he was extremely proud of. However, none of them compared to his family.
