Thomas Hartley Johnson Sr., 86, of Glen Burnie, passed away on June 11, 2020. He was born in Maryland to the late Thomas Hardy and Emma Elizabeth Bowman Johnson. He was an avid farmer and proud owner of the Johnson farm in Smallwood. He also had a career in nursing at Springfield Hospital Center for 31 years and was a previous co-owner of Johnson Bus Service.
