WOW I have been sooo wrapped up with my dad's death which I will post below that I just now 6-28-16 10:30 pm seen really who this was. My dad used to help drive trucks back for Kenny I would be ONLY guessing ? 1975 maybe.... I never got to meet Kenny but my dad Richard Johnson & my Uncle Ralph Johnson Jr both talked about Kenny a lot.
Here is my dads info below:
Richard Dean Johnson was born June 24, 1940 to Ralph and Nellie (Colson) Johnson, Sr. in Pawnee City, Nebraska. He lived with his family on the farm near Elk Creek, Nebraska. He attended Elk Creek Public School, graduating with the Class of 1958.
He was united in marriage to Darlene M. Grove on November 15, 1959 at the Pawnee County Courthouse. To this union three children were born. They lived near Elk Creek until moving to Tecumseh in the 1970’s. After their marriage, Richard worked for D & M Feed in Auburn, Tecumseh Rendering Plant, Campbell Soup Company, OK Tire, and Auburn Consolidated Industries in Auburn. He also farmed near Auburn and worked for several farmers. He retired from ACI as a Maintenance Technician after 24 years.
Richard was a very hard worker and enjoyed helping his kids with their houses. He loved going to auctions, playing cards, reading books, doing puzzles, fishing, gardening, watching things grow, wiring houses and watching westerns, wrestling and cooking shows on t.v. Richard would help anyone who needed assistance and never complained. He was recently diagnosed with cancer and he passed away on June 26, 2016, one day after his 76th birthday.
He is survived by his wife, Darlene of Tecumseh, children, Dale Johnson of Tecumseh, Ken Johnson and wife DeAnn of Unadilla and Brenda Laflin Johnson of Tecumseh, many grandchildren, step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren, sisters, Helen Schuetz and husband Carl of Humboldt and Joan Sullwold and husband Hank of Stella, numerous nieces and nephews and sister-in-law, Ramona Johnson of Table Rock.
Richard was preceded in death by his parents and one brother, Ralph Johnson, Jr.
Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, June 29, 2016 at the Wherry Mortuary in Tecumseh, Nebraska with Chaplain Sharon Schuster officiating. Visitation will be at the Wherry Mortuary in Tecumseh, Nebraska, Tuesday, June 28, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., with family greeting friends from 6-8 p.m. Memorials may go to the family’s choice.

Velma and family, We were saddened to learn of Kenny's passing. We don't have a lot of stories or memories about Kenny, but what we do have are good ones. Steve will tell a Kenny Albin story every now and then. He touched many lives and will be missed. Our prayers for all of you.
