Nicki Johnson-Shaffo
“Uncle Skip”, as he was known to me. I am one of Lark’s daughters, Nicki Johnson-Shaffo. Lark married into my family in 1964, when I was 13. My Dad, Thomas R Johnson, Jr and she made a great blended family with three children each.
I only was blessed to attend one of the big Cline Reunions in the early 1990’s in Salt Lake City, Utah. What a fantastic clan! Aunt Sharon, may you continue to be blessed with more and more great-grandchildren. And to all of my Cline Cousins, Uncle Skip (and as “Dad”), was such a great man in your lives. How lucky each of you were to have him around y’all. I cherish my last visit with him out here in California, at my sister Lloydy’s (“Tammy’s”) funeral - another original Cline, Lark’s oldest daughter. May all of you Clines know how much he is missed, even now, four years later.
