Johnnie Carr was president of the Montgomery Improvement Association and lifelong friend of Mrs. Rosa Parks. She died this month at the age of 97.
As a follow up to my quiz on folks who died before 21 I thought it would be interesting to investigate a bit to find out who had left us before the age of 30...still very young! I hope this quiz is instructive...enjoy.
The world has lost many great and talented people who never made it to their 40th birthdays. This quiz pays homage to some of those who perished while still in their prime.
