Warren Lee (Johnny) Johnson, 78, of Stone Ridge Road, Concord, died peacefully Tuesday, October 16, 2018, at his residence.
Born in Alexandria, Va., on October 8, 1940, he was a son of the late Virginia Warren and Wilson Lee Johnson. He graduated GW High School and attended Corcoran School of the Arts and Design.
