Miron Tyrone Johnson, Sr., was born September 19, 1958 in Cleveland, Mississippi to Rosie Johnson and the late Artlister Johnson, Sr.

Miron accepted Christ at an early age.  He joined the First Baptist Church in Symonds, Mississippi under the leadership of the late Reverend Haines.  He moved to Chicago, IL in 1975, where he worked at Columbus Manor, the U.S. Steel before returning to his roots in Mississippi and meeting the love of his life.

Miron was united in Holy Matrimony to Barbara Norman and to this union, one child was born.  He loved his wife and child unconditional, and he instilled in his child what his parents instilled in him that is to respect your elders and always put God first.  He loved his family very much; his family was his life.
