On Thursday, April 16, 2009, Duane L. Johnson, an amazing husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away suddenly from a stroke.
He was born October 9, 1934 in Bellingham, WA. As one of two boys in the Johnson family, he learned the value of hard work and dedication to family and friends. At age eight he could be found: collecting bottles for money to help out his parents, taking on odd farming jobs and doing construction work for additional cash to donate to families and friends in his community who needed assistance. These strong work ethics and humanitarian values would stick with him for the rest of his life.
In 1953, he graduated from Bellingham High and was soon awe struck by a young lady, Meridian High's very own Carnival Queen, Katrina Lee Holt. They married August 3, 1956 and moved to Alger where they built a home and raised five children.
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Katrina L. Johnson and their five children: Roderick Allen, Michael Lynn, Randal Scott, Angela Kay and Mark Andrew Johnson and their spouses; 15 grandchildren; and 7 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Odin R. and Otilla "Tillie" Johnson; and his brother, Alvin L. Johnson.
Baptized in 1951 as a Jehovah's Witness, he served as an Elder in the Burlington congregation. Whether caring for his family, serving his brothers and sisters in the congregation, engaging in the door to door ministry, or donating many hours constructing, remodeling, and inspecting Kingdom Halls in Western and Eastern Washington, his love and dedication for Jehovah God coupled with love for his spiritual and fleshly family is an outstanding example for all.
His talents with hammer and nail as learned from his father served him with the privilege of being part of many Kingdom Hall construction projects and also for establishing his own business of Duane Johnson & Sons Construction, Inc. He spent many years building and remodeling homes and businesses in Western Washington. The company continues as a family owned business, now operating for 31 years with son Randal S. Johnson as owner.
Retirement - if you could call it that - didn't slow him down, he found projects for all to do at home and at the Kingdom Hall. He never lacked for a list of things that just must be done or directions for how it should be done. With his finger waving and pointing he would say, "just listen to daddy." Well known and loved as an exceptional man, leader, story teller and friend. He will be missed by many.
A special thanks to the doctors, nurses and technicians at St. Joseph's Hospital of Bellingham, Washington for making his last moments with us, as comfortable for him and family, as possible.
A memorial service will be held on May 2, 2009 at 2p.m. in the cafeteria of Lucille Umbarger Elementary School, located at 820 S. Skagit Street, Burlington, WA.
