Obituary for
Joan Catherine Johnson
On April 11, 2021, Joan Catherine Johnson of Onoway, AB, formerly of Yorkshire, England, passed away at the age of 95 years.
Joan is a beloved wife of Doug Hafner; mother to Barry (Jan) Peterson of Brackendale, BC, Debora (Barry) Thomson of Stony Plain, AB and Joanne (Svend) Nielsen of Innisfail, AB; nana to eight grandchildren; great-nana to six great-grandchildren; and companion of her dog, Missy.
Joan came to Canada as a war bride, married to Arthur Peterson and had three children, Barry, Joanne and Debbie. After two failed marriages, she found the love of her life, Doug Hafner. They spent forty-five years together camping, gardening and enjoying acreage life. They retired just outside of Onoway and hosted many Christmases and summer weiner roasts. Joan enjoyed the company of her family, especially her grandchildren and loved her dog, Missy. Her witty humor and caring personality will be greatly missed.
She was predeceased by her parents, Mary Elizabeth and George Chapman Whitfield; five sisters, Emily, Betty, Elsie, Mary and Muriel.
Special thank you to the Alberta Health Services Home Care in Onoway.
