He was a hidden romantic who loved practical jokes and long talks late at night pondering life’s mysteries. Now, at last, he knows all of them.He is dearly missed by his loving wife, Jackie Gail Johnson, his son Jeff and Jeff’s significant other Jenna Evans, his other son, James Romer, his daughters Dawn Renee, and Janny Romer and his exuberant beautiful granddaughter Cassandra Quinn Romer.
