Well, Providence has smiled on us once again and graciously gave us one truly wonderful sale!

Let us start off by saying it is truly our honor to offer the estate of such an amazing couple as Reverend Dr. Robert Hugh Johnston, Jr. and his wife Sara. It would normally take at least 4 or more lifetimes to accomplish and live out the one life that Robert did. How one man could do all that is nothing short of amazing. He is referred to as a "polymath", meaning he was a person of great and varied learning: Graduated Baylor University and then attended Baylor school of medicine and trained to become a cardiovascular surgeon and practiced more than 50 years. Served as a flight surgeon in both the Air Force National Guard and Army National Guard. Rose to the rank of colonel. Passionate about flying he was a pilot at an early age and flew well into his 80's with over 7000 hours flying time. Transitioning from medicine late in life he attended seminary in his 70's and was ordained an Episcopal priest in 2009. Here during Memorial Day weekend 2023 we at Crossroads Estate Sales salute the lives of Dr. Johnston and Sara.
