We regret to advise of the passing of Harold Duane Johnson on Tuesday, 3 June 2025 at the Sackville Memorial Hospital at the age of 85 years.
Harold was born in High River AB and raised in the town of Royalities, now a ghost town, but once the centre of the Turner Valley oil boom.
Harold served for eleven years in the Royal Navy on both coasts, which included two years as a submariner and three years in the Royal Canadian Engineers. Harold also was a long-haul trucker for almost forty years. He loved to fish, loved dancing and found cooking a lot of fun. Harold liked to tease and always had a smile on his face. He will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved him.
Harold’s family would like to thank the exceptional nurses of Extra-Mural for their wonderful care and kindness during his last days.
Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Erin Campbell and staff of Campbell’s Funeral Home, 89 Bridge Street, Sackville N.B. (506) 364-8188.
