Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryJULIA KIRK JOHNSON (LOA) Peacefully, on June 28, 2007, our Nanny passed away at the age of 94 years. Nanny will always be loved and remembered by her remaining grandchildren, Laurie, Evan (Fanny); great-grandchildren, Chris, Nick, Teddy and Blaine, Anna-Maria and Evan Jr; and close family friend Lillian Gudmundson. Nanny was predeceased by both parents Kristjan and Kristin Bjarnason; her brothers, Wallace, Lawrence, Marino; her husband Johannes Joe Johnson (Afi); and her daughter Madeline Barker. Nanny was born and raised in Arborg (Fiskilaek) where she remained until our Afi passed away. We will always cherish our childhood memories of time spent with both sets of our grandparents in the Arborg area. Nanny was a very talented woman who enjoyed showing and sharing her skills of cooking, baking and knitting, to name but a few. Cremation has taken place. A service will be held on Wednesday, July 11, 2007, at 2:00 p.m. at the Ardal-Geysir Evangelical Lutheran Church. Interment will follow at the Ardal Cemetery. Special thanks to the caring staff at the Golden Door Geriatric Centre in Winnipeg for looking after Nanny in her final years. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Ardal-Geysir Evangelical Lutheran Church.
