IRENE PHYLIS JOHNSON 1915 - 2001 On January 19, 2001, at Weslaco, Texas, my Mom went to heaven. My Dad was by her side as he has been for over 47 years. My Mom never aspired to greatness, her life was her family. She loved us as only a mother could and her loved her only grandchild Justin more than life itself. In accordance with my parents wishes, cremation has taken place; Mom will await Dad until such time they can be joined for eternity. My Mom is survived by her husband Al, son Wayne and his wife Cynthia and their son Justin; her brother George Townsend; his children Pat and Bruce; his wife Verna and her daughter Leslie (Gene) Saxby and their families; her brother-in-law Jack Sherstone and his children John (Pam), David (Barb), Sharon (Bruce) Harkness and Jane and their families; her nephews and nieces Herb (Leslie) Johnson, Dave (Brenda) Johnson, Bob (Lynn) Johnson, Marion (Larry) McIntosh, Gertrude (Bruce) Dejong and their families. The Reverend Stephen Sharman will officiate at a memorial service that will take place at St. Andrews on the Red, 3 St. Andrews Rd. on Monday, January 29 at 2:00 p.m. A reception will follow at Corpus Christi church hall, 5819 Henderson Hwy. In lieu of flowers, Moms favourite charity is the Spinal Cord Society, 19051 Co. Hwy. 1, Fergus Falls, MN 56537-7609.
