A Tribute to Joe Johnson by His Mother

Related Topics: Joe Johnson, Becky Johnson

You all knew him as a writer, podcaster, on the radio, and as the owner of PurplePTSD and Vikings Territory.

To me, he was just my son, my baby.

He loved all things Marvel, the Avengers, and Ironman! Especially Spiderman. But Tony Stark was his hero! He cried when Tony died. He not only made me watch all the movies but, in typical Joe fashion, he had to pause it and explain what he felt were the pivotal moments so I would understand how important that moment was (I just wanted to see Chris Hemsworth with his shirt off).
