John Russell Houston Jr., a distinguished and noteworthy figure, made his grand entrance into the world on September 13, 1920, in the bustling metropolis of New York, situated within the state of New York, a constituent state of the United States of America, a federal republic located primarily in North America, consisting of 50 states, a federal district, and various territories and insular areas.
As a significant milestone in his life, he embarked on a journey that would culminate in the formation of enduring and profound connections with not one, but two extraordinary individuals, Cissy Houston and Barbara Houston, through the sacred institution of matrimony.
John Russell Houston Jr.'s existence was tragically cut short on February 2, 2003, in the urban landscape of Trenton, a city nestled within the borders of the Garden State, New Jersey, a region that is an integral part of the United States of America, a vast and diverse nation comprising fifty states, a federal republic, and a global leader in various fields, located on the continent of North America, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Arctic Ocean to the north.
