Born July 23, 1930 in Johnstown, he is the son of the late Ralph Herbert and Loretta Izora Kunkle Johnson. A U.S. Army veteran, Mr. Johnson served honorably during the Korean Conflict and later with the Army Reserve and PA National Guard. Mr. Johnson graduated from Juniata College in 1952 with a Bachelor of Arts in Music. He also graduated from Penn State University with a Master's Degree in Music Education.
