Johnny Todd Johnson

Johnny Todd Johnson, 69 of Eaton, Ohio, died Monday, September 23, 2024 at Sycamore Hospital in Miamisburg, Ohio following a brief illness. He was born on November 12, 1954 in Dayton, Ohio, was a graduate of Dixie High School in New Lebanon, Ohio and attended farrier school in Illinois. He adored horses and throughout his life trained and raced horses in numerous harness races around the country. He loved coaching little league baseball and football and was an avid fan of the Cincinnati Reds, Cincinnati Bengals and Ohio State Football. Johnny never knew a stranger and seemed to know everyone, but his greatest joy came from harness racing and spending time with his family and close friends.  

He was preceded in death by an infant brother, Steven Johnson in 1950; maternal grandparents, Charles “Gramps” and Ada (Hafer) Jacobs and paternal grandparents, Richard M. and Mabel (Gebhart) Johnson.  

He is survived by his parents, Richard M. and Doris Jane (Jacobs) Johnson, Jr.; his children, Lindsey (Jason) Proctor, Johnna (Tony) Smith and Jake (Ciera) Johnson; brother and sister-in-law Richard M. “Joe” (Debra) Johnson, III; grandchildren, Maddie Baker and Gavin Kisling; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and a host of friends.
