Harley Gene Johnson, Age 72, of Las Vegas, Nevada September 7, 1952 – March 16, 2025 It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Harley G. Johnson, age 72, on March 16, 2025, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Harley was born on September 7, 1952, to William and Nola Johnson. He was preceded in death by his parents, his beloved sisters Debra Francis and Linda Hagewood, and his brothers Don, Bob, Steve, and Rick Johnson. Harley was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather, and friend whose warmth and generosity touched the lives of many. His legacy will live on through the countless memories he shared with family and friends, as well as the values of kindness, resilience, and loyalty that he instilled in those who knew him best. He was the kind of man who made everyone feel welcome, offering a helping hand and a warm smile whenever needed. Harley is survived by his loving wife of 49 years, Judy, his daughter, Christina (Rob) Varela, his son, Will (Stephanie), his grandchildren, Abigail, Zeke, Jaxon, Cash, and Harvey, his sister, Patricia Hastings, and brother, Dave (Pam) Johnson, as well as many nieces and nephews. Harley’s passion for travel was unmatched. Whether he was road tripping across the country, discovering hidden gems, or smoking in the beauty of the great outdoors, there was no place he’d rather be than on an adventure with his children and grandchildren. He cherished these moments, making lasting memories and teaching his loved ones to appreciate the world around them. Harley also found joy in the company of his many friends and neighbors, with whom he shared countless stories and laughter. When not traveling, he enjoyed working in his yard, making his home a peaceful retreat. Above all, he treasured the time spent with his beloved wife, Judy. Before embarking on his career as a skilled carpenter, Harley served in the military as a cook, a role that taught him discipline, teamwork, and a love for service. His hands built not only homes but the foundation for many meaningful relationships.
