They were the spice of his life and an enjoyment on their summer vacations together. He was an avid fisherman and he hosted many a good fish fry for family and friends. He also provided many others with an abundance of white perch. Preston was always eager and willing to help his neighbors and friends.

| 3107 | Obituary: PROMINENT CITIZEN OF TITUSVILLE DIES ------- John R. Walker, Father of George Walker of This City Is Claimed By Death ------- TITUSVILLE, Aug. 5 - Funeral services for John R. Walker, president of the local civic league, and one of the most prominent citizens of Brevard county, who died suddenly Thursday night, will be held here Sunday afternoon. Mr. Walker, who was 58 years old, had held numerous municipal and county offices since coming here from South Carolina 34 years ago. He had served as county school superintendent, chairman of the board of county commissioners, and mayor of Titusville Beach Company. He had presided at a meeting of the Civic League Thursday night and jocularly complained of the heat but appeared in his usual good health. He died a few minutes after returning home from the meeting. Death was caused by the bursting of a blood vessel near the heart. Mr. Walker, who was prominent in various fraternal organizations, is survived by his wife, formerly Miss Hester Elizabeth Swain of Titusville, three sons and a daughter. ------- Son in Miami George Walker of Miami is a son of the deceased, and another son, Charles Walker, is residing in Boston, Mass. Mr. Walker was well known in Florida as the "father of the league" which was organized to build a bridge across the Indian river, connecting Titusville with the ocean, and to build a road to Orlando and another to Orsino on Merritt Island. The people ratified Mr. Walker's idea at the polls, voting the bods for the proposed improvements, and it is a marked coincidence that on the day of his death the Brevard county commissioners let the contract for the bridge and roads which he conceived.

| 3134 | Obituary: Raymond Allen Johnson March 22, 2016 ~ October 28, 2021 Raymond Allen Johnson passed away into the arms of the Lord on October 28, 2021. Raymond was born on March 22, 2016 in Austin, Texas to the parents of Riley Daniel Johnson and Lauren Haley Trail. Raymond's love for life started on day 1 to the day he left us. Raymond was always full of so much energy, especially when he played outside, which was something that he always enjoyed. His best friends were his sister Lacey Grace and his cousin Lucas Johnson, the three of them loved playing together. Some of Raymond's favourite things included; power rangers, dinosaurs, Legos, wagon rides, and anything else they could get their hands on. At the age of two, Raymond was your typical little boy, always experimenting and trying to test the limits of his parent's patience. This all changed for Raymond and his family on October 4, 2018, when he was diagnosed with stage 4 hepatoblastoma, a very rare childhood liver cancer that impacts just one in a million children the ages 1-3, around the world each year. Raymond started chemotherapy at Dell Children Hospital followed by 5 surgeries, one to remove the primary tumor from his liver and the rest were on his lungs. He rang the bell on June 19th, 2019, when he finished his chemotherapy, and at that time it looked like Ray was on the home stretch and was finally in remission. Unfortunately, the cancer returned in his lungs and he had to start chemotherapy again. After another 4 rounds of chemotherapy, Ray was accepted into a clinical trial to test a new cancer treatment approach at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston. In August of 2020, Ray was infused with modified CAR-T-Cells that were engineered to attack the metastasized cancer within his lungs. Through all of the treatments, Ray was always strong, always happy, and always found a way to make people smile, even when they were sad. He was truly one in a million! In January of 2021, Ray was given 10 rounds of radiation over two weeks to try and help reduce the size of the tumor. In March 2021, Ray's condition was determined to be terminal, and doctors gave Ray just one month to live. Despite this devastating news, Ray's quality of life improved dramatically and he started to regain his strength and once again enjoy his life. He took a trip with his family to Disneyworld and was part of the Lion King show. This past summer, Ray got to enjoy a normal boy's life. He got to play in the dirt, ride horses, catch fish, and even got to go to kindergarten. Ray loved the outdoors and spent some of his best days being outdoors with his family. He truly was a fighter, a warrior, and a hero to everyone. Ray's journey inspired so many around the world to believe in miracles and re-discover their faith. The miracle was that he was with us for so long, always happy, and always smiling. He was a Ray of Light in everyone's life! Ray is survived by his parents, Riley Daniel Johnson and Lauren Haley Trail; his sister, Lacey Grace; his grandparents, Suzy Renee Johnson and Dustan Ray Hale; Mark and Mira Johnson; Mark and Linda Trail; great grandparents, Pamela Poole and Mary Johnson; and his Uncle Ches and Aunt Kellany "Yang Yang" Johnson; and his cousin, Lucas Johnson. Viewing will be on November 2, 2021, from 4-6 pm at Callaway-Jones Funereal Home, 3001 S. Collage Ave., Bryan, Texas 78701. Memorial service will be on November 3, 2021, at 10 am at Hillcrest Baptist Church, 4220 Boonville Rd., Bryan, Texas 77802.

| 3143 | Obituary: RAYNE PIONEER BURIED TODAY Auguste Perres, Estimable Citizen Succumbs After Three Days Illness Auguste Perres, one of the pioneer settlers of the town of Rayne, was buried this morning at 9 o'clock. Right Rev. J. B. Jeanmard, bishop of Lafayette, officiated. He was assisted by Rev. Father Doutre, pastor of the Catholic Church in Rayne. The funeral was largely attended because the deceased was held in the highest esteem by many friends. Three days ago, Mr. Perres became ill with an acute attack of Bright's disease from which he never rallied. He passed into eternity at 10:30 o'clock Tuesday morning surrounded by his loved ones. All of the time that he lived in Rayne, Mr. Perres conducted a blacksmith and wheelwright establishment. In later years he retired and his son, Felix Perres, carried on the business which his father established so well. Besides his son, Mr. Perres is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Frank Jeanmard, of Lafayette, and a sister, Mrs. Walter McBride, of Rayne, as well as a number of other relatives. Mr. Perres was always deeply concerned in the welfare of Rayne, more particularity because he was among the original settlers in the place. There remains but two more of the first citizens of the town, Auguste Perres and H.W. Anding, according to the information given to The Signal this morning. We wish to extend our condolence to those who are grieved in the death of this much lamented citizen. (Published in The Crowley Daily Signal on January 19, 1921) | Perres, Auguste Jr. (I1476)
