Alene Johnson
My deepest sympathy to Alene's family and loved ones. We taught at Philemon for many years and she was always a pleasure to be with - a lovely lady. She will certainly be missed.
Alene Johnson of Gatineau (Aylmer), Quebec, passed away on October 27th, 2016, at the age of 69. She is survived by her husband Lloyd, of 44 years, daughter Naomi, sister Shirley (Don) of Swan River, Manitoba, brother John (Cheryl) of Winnipeg, Manitoba, and many cousins, nieces, and nephews. Preceded by her parents, Chester and Elsie Cameron of Roland, Manitoba.
Alene was a talented and dedicated teacher, who touched the lives of many students over her long teaching career at Philemon Wright High School. In her retired years, Alene enjoyed an active social life with family and many lifelong friends. Some of her favourite moments were spent cooking, reading, and being outside in her garden picking weeds.
At Alene's request, there will be no funeral service. As Alene was always very passionate about living a life focused on holistic wellness, donations in her honour may be considered for the Ottawa Integrative Cancer Centre or La Maison Mathieu-Froment Savoie, where she received excellent care in her final days.
