DUSTIN SHAYE JEREMIAH JOHNSON Died accidentally riding his motorcycle. Dustins passing was sudden and tragic, he will always be remembered for his love of all motorized vehicles, wheeled and tracked. Their only requirement was the power to go like stink. You had to admire his constant fight with Cystic Fibrosis and his uncomplaining attitude. He lived life on the edge and said "I wont die in bed." Dustin was exciting and fun to be with. Many a story will be told of his exploits and the remembering will keep his memory alive forever. God speed Dustin, enjoy the ride. Now free of pain and happy to join his mother Jolene in a better place. Dustin was predeceased by his mother Jolene in December, 2000, and leaves behind to mourn his sudden passing his father Bob and sister Tori and her friend Kevin, as well as a large and beloved family of uncles, aunts and cousins. Pallbearers will be his cousins Brett, Preston, Raymond, Tate, Ricky and Benjamin. Funeral service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 10, at the Oakbank Baptist Church, 4655 Springfield Rd.

We came to know each other later in life my friend, and made great use of the time we had. Sledding, bikes, quads, and cars especially. Often still you are in my thoughts. Ride on - Posted by: geoff pitura (friend) on: Jan 17, 2014
