Michael Louis Johnson Sr.

Michael was born in Fresno, Ca, but grew up in Orcutt. He spent most of his adult life in Santa Barbara, Ca. He was married three times and had five children and 7 grandchildren. Mike was a maintenance man for SB county for 30+ years and was a wonderful provider. Mike worked hard and played harder. He loved nature and was an avid camper, fisherman, and surfer. He spent many years on the back of a motorcycle. He was a talented musician, and was passionate about music all his life. He had a wicked sense of humor and infectious belly laugh. Mike was rough around the edges, but had a tender heart. He spent the last decade in Kingman, AZ enjoying his retirement with his wife.

Michael suffered from Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. He passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by love.

Michael is survived by his big, boisterous blended family; Densie, Rick, Michelle, Dan, Amy, Keith, Raichel, Michael Jr, Caleb, Ethan, Daniel, Travis, Cloe, Ava, River, Robin, Chris Ann, Staci, Scott, and many extended family members and friends.

An intimate celebration of life BBQ has already been held in AZ and one in SB is TBD.
