On Sunday, January 20, 2013 Elaine Johnson passed away peacefully at the age of 85 after a long battle with Alzheimer's. Elaine is survived by her five children, Dorie, Dean, Mark, Kathy, Stew; and seven grandchildren.

She worked as a nurse prior to starting a large family with her husband Vern, who passed away in 1980. For many years she was Chorus Steward and publicist with the Edmonton Opera and active in leading church choirs.
