DALLAS, TEXAS — “Laura and I join our community in giving thanks for the life of Sam Johnson. He served our country with dignity for nearly thirty years in the United States Congress. Prior to that, the former fighter pilot admirably served the United States in both the Korean War and Vietnam, where he survived seven brutal years as a prisoner of war at the Hanoi Hilton. Laura and I are grateful for this man of humility and patriotism, and we take comfort knowing that he is with his beloved wife, Shirley, again.”
