JOHNSON, Jeanette (Jan) Ileene

November 11, 1932– Ponoka, Alberta

November 30, 2013 – Calgary, Alberta


Jeanette (Jan) Johnson, a kind, pleasant and lovable lady always ready with a smile or a laugh and a better friend you would not wish for. Jeanette was born to Signa and Stanley Seagrave in Ponoka, AB on November 11, 1932 and lived her life until November 30, 2013 at 81 years of age.


Jan spent her working years on Maternity Wards at the General Hospital and Royal Alex in Edmonton and the Holy Cross and Rocky View Hospital in Calgary. Free from pain at last but Jan’s presence with her loving nature will be sadly missed by her husband, family, many friends and relatives.


Left to grieve the loss of Jeanette is her husband of fifty-seven years, Karl W Johnson, daughter Hope C Johnson (Mike), son Robin S Johnson (Kathy), granddaughter Nadia M J Johnson, brother Harvey Seagrave (Geneva), sister Isabell Hughes and numerous nieces and nephews. Jeanette was predeceased by her son Jason, parents, brothers Clarence and Irving, sisters Florence, Frances, and Marjory.

In lieu of flowers, if friends so desire, memorial donations may be made to a charity of their choice. A special thanks to Robin, Kathy, Hope and Mike for their unwavering diligence to Jeanette’s needs in her time of illness.
