Edward H. Johnson, 77 of Bruce Crossing, passed away peacefully on December 1, 2015 at his home.

He was born September 18, 1938 in Bruce Crossing to Hubert and Edna (Pesonen) Johnson. He married Charlotte Elliott in Wakefield in 1960. Ed worked as a truck driver for the Co-op, and later worked in the maintenance department at the White Pine Copper Mine until his retirement.

Ed is survived by his wife Charlotte; daughter Sheri (Mark) Gondek; granddaughter Kacee; great-grandson Blake; numerous cousins and some very special neighbors.

He was preceded in death by his parents; in-laws Harvey and Bertha Elliott; sisters-in-law Patty Pikka and Cindy Elliott; and beloved dog Queenie.
