Oldest brother to Leander, these closeknit siblings stayed together throughout their lives from college to helping their Mother Sallie Leverett Johnson run a summer retreat now known as the Historic Johnson Farm located on N.C. 191. The final and largest gift they left was deeding their 15 acre homestead to the schools of Henderson County. “Their gift was their legacy - loving, learning and a great concern for the education of children.”
