John Edgar Brison III “Johnny”, 69, of Arden, North Carolina passed away on Monday, April 29, 2024.

Sure going to miss my friend Johnny. I met Johnny around 1985 at High Vista and Remember wishing they don’t put me on that same team as that hippy looking guy. Since that day we have been friends. We played many tournaments as partners and it was always fun. He was a great competitor and very good golfer. He was a very good father and always shared with me what was going on with his kids. I have so many good memories with Johnny and his humor and how we enjoyed golf together. God bless Johnny’s family and his memories will last forever.
John and Family,
I was surprised and saddened to hear of Johnny passing. I met Johnny at High Vista playing golf and he was always great friend. We had a lot of fun on annual golf trips to Myrtle Beach and Johnny’s wit and humor will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
