it just seems precious to me
that a daughter can have such
lovely quality time with her
parents, who are wonderful
people. i feel like they are part
of my family, too.

Childress counts the Johnsons among her favorite
clients because of their closeness and their upbeat,
fun-loving spirit.

Memories and Keepsakes

For the last seven years, the Johnsons have relied
on AAA Travel Specialist Donna Childress of the
Greenville AAA office to help them with their
travel arrangements.
“She’s so easy to work with and she’s always
available,” Jill says. “The way that I look at it,
compared to booking a trip ourselves, using a
travel agent is like eating at a full-service restaurant compared to going to a drive-through. It’s
wonderful to have her service.” For her part,

When they aren’t traveling, the Johnsons enjoy
reliving their adventures. Jill’s house is filled with
souvenirs, photos and mementos of their travels. In
their home, Virginia and Jimmy have created a
dedicated “travel room” with hundreds of photo
albums from vacations spanning their 56 years of
marriage. By pulling out their Greek Isles album, for
example, they can look back on climbing ancient
ruins on Rhodes, or chuckle at the time on Santorini
when Virginia accidentally knocked over a man who
helped her onto a donkey.
All three Johnsons are known among friends as
the “go-to people” for travel tales and information.
“At least once every couple of months, someone
asks to meet up because they are about to take
a trip or go on a cruise and they want to see
our photos and hear about our travels,” says Jill.
“We love to share the great experiences we’ve had
as a family.”
