Johnson Shoe Shop is a landmark in Ludowici and though it’s closed, is maintained by the Johnson family. Lieutenant Colonel Reg Neal, a native of Ludowici writes of its beloved owner: Mr. W.F. “Sunny” Johnson has passed on, but he left a lasting legacy.
My daddy would go here for his shoes to be fixed. I remember going with my daddy
I remember my Dad, Lowell Strickland taking his shoes there and just sitting and talking with Mr . Johnson for a couple of hours.
Remember it well

I grew up here. Beautiful picture and a true piece of GA americana and African American history. Mr. W.F. “Sunny” Johnson has passed on, but he left a lasting legacy. Thank you
