Johnny Lee Ingram, Jr., age 35, of Silver Creek, Ga, passed away on Monday morning, September 14, 2026.

Johnny was born in Rome, GA on December 27, 1990, son of the late Johnny Lee Ingram, Sr. and the late Beverly Dyer. He enjoyed skateboarding and was a devoted Georgia football fan. Above all, Johnny cherished the time he spent with his daughter and fiancé. His family was the center of his world, and the love he shared with them will be treasured always.

Johnny was a loving father and fiancé as there was never a day that he did not show kindness toward the people he loved the most. His motto was, “Kill them with kindness” I believe that is what he did both in real life and on the game. He was always proud of the two most important women in his life was his daughter, Emma Jo Ingram , and fiancé, Sarajo Dear, as they both pursue a career in the medical field. He encouraged them to always try their best and study hard. He will be dearly missed but never forgotten. 

In addition to his parents, Johnny was preceded in death by his brother, James Norris; and his grandmother, Rose Marie Smith.

He is survived by his daughter, Emma Jo Ingram; his fiancé, SaraJo Dear; and his brothers, Donald Smith (Jane), and Willie Smith.
