About the author
Rufus Johnson
I was born in Prince George County, Virginia, and grew up in Richmond. I graduated from Highland Springs High School in 1974 and joined the U.S. Navy the following year, serving from 1975 to 1977.
After my military service, I spent 30 years working in the drywall industry. I also pursued further education through a home study course at the Cleveland Institute of Electronics, earning a two-year diploma. In addition, I completed a one-year automotive repair program at Lincoln Technical Center.
Over the course of my career, I worked for a total of 40 years before retiring and receiving Social Security benefits.
I am married and blessed with a beautiful wife.
