On September 21, 1942 the world was blessed with one of the most amazing, generous, strong women and on November 27th with broken hearts we said goodbye to Rosemarie Diana Johnston. Beloved wife of the late John Johnston. The best mother in the world to Brenda Johnston, Kymberly (Kerry) Bice, Shelly (John) Nobile. Her grandchildren who were the light and pride of her life Christopher, Currie (Laura), Camille (Chuck), Cole (Chantal), Alessandro, Matteo (Bronwen). GG to the most adorable great grandchildren John, Ava, Charlie, Isaac, Jasper, River, Fisher and Shay.
Diana was also a surrogate mother and grandmother to many who she loved dearly.
Known by most of the town of Huntsville after 40 years of working on Main St. She loved and was loved by all the people she worked with and the customers she helped. Rarely a week went by in those 40 years where one of her daughters wouldn’t be approached by someone telling them what an amazing mother they had. None of that was ever news to them. They’ve always known how blessed they were to be born to the most amazing mother in the world.
Each and every family member and friend of Diana’s had eaten themselves into a diabetic coma from the amazing food she cooked and baked. Especially her beyond delicious butter-tarts which more many years will still cause arguments as to if coconut or raisin are best (BTW coconut are the best).
Diana was a bright and shining star that touched and guided so many and will live forever in our hearts, growing brighter throughout time.
Due to Covid 19 a celebration of life will be held at a future date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Rosemarie Diana Johnston 2020..
Death notice for the town of: Huntsville, Province: Ontario
