JOHNSON, Judith “Judy” Marian 1940-2019

Judith Marian “Judy” Johnson, of Vulcan, beloved wife of Ken, passed away peacefully at the Vulcan Extendicare on November 18, 2019 at the age of 79 years.  

Thanks for the memories Mum! Today we said good bye. We all have fond memories of Mum and may you all remember some way she touched your life and made you smile. Mum / Grandma / Great Grandma / Sister / Aunt / Nurse / Friend. Dementia is not kind, but I loved that in her last year she was a nurse and still trying to look after everyone. While we recall memories of her, it makes me sad that Mum’s fight made her lose her memories of us.

We will be planning a Celebration of Life for this summer in Lucky Lake. If you would like to send a card, Dad’s address is PO Box 1584, Vulcan, AB, T0L 2B0.

Any tributes in Judy’s memory can be made to the Alzheimer Society of Alberta & Northwest Territories, Allendale Professional Centre, #306, 10430 – 61 Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta, T6H 2J3.

I found lyrics in a song today that I thought Mum might like:

“Here’s to the ones that we got,
Cheers to the wish you were here, but you’re not,
‘Cause the drinks bring back all the memories,
Of everything we’ve been through.
Toast to the ones here today,
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way,
‘Cause the drinks bring back all the memories,
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you  .
