Cleveland Johns, a beloved husband, father, Paw and friend, passed away peacefully on July 10, 2025, in Georgia.

Cleveland was also preceded in death by eight siblings, leaving a legacy of love and support for his immediate family.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Arlene Long, with whom he shared a life filled with love, laughter, and warmth.

Cleveland's education journey came to an early conclusion when he completed the third grade, but his commitment to supporting his family was unwavering as he took on responsibilities at a young age. He dedicated his life to his career as the owner and operator of businesses, Bibb Well Drilling and Leisure Park Mud Racing. His work was a testament to his strong work ethic and unwavering honesty, qualities that defined his character. Cleveland was known for his loyalty, honesty, and a delightful sense of humor. These traits were the bedrock of his relationships, endearing him to all who knew him. His ability to bring laughter into everyday moments was a gift that will be sorely missed.
Cleveland Johns leaves behind a rich legacy of love and integrity. Though he may no longer walk among us, his spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those he cherished. He will be remembered with fondness and gratitude for the life he lived and the example he set.
