October 24, 1961 – October 11, 2020
On October 11, 2020, Terry Johnson passed away peacefully at Beausejour General Hospital, bringing an end to his hard fought battle with pancreatic cancer.
Terry leaves behind his beloved wife, best friend, and the love of his life, Kathleen (Berkhoff), adored son Mason and the four legged members of his small but loving family. Brother to Wayne Johnson (Norma), William (Bob) Johnson (Diane), George Johnson and sister Debbie Johnson and loving Uncle to Christopher, Trisha (Barry), Bryan, Pam, Shawna (Scott), Dana, Erica, Danielle, Adam (Keara), and Danielle. Predeceased by his parents, Edward and Jean (Todoruk), Terry had many aunts, uncles and cousins that played starring roles in his many stories of his youth. He is survived by his Auntie Lucy Poitras and Uncle Lorne Todoruk (Karen). Terry was blessed with a generous heart, an open mind and a ready laugh, not to mention countless friends with enduring relationships no matter the distance between them. Terry, Dad, Uncle Toots, TJ, whatever you knew him by, he will be forever missed by the loving people that knew him.
Terry enjoyed so much of the life he was given, especially the outdoors, fishing with friends and family, camping and fishing with Mason in Snow Lake or just watching his apple trees grow at his new home in Tyndall, Manitoba. He particularly enjoyed road trips, including a most memorable one to Whitehorse with his brother Bob. No matter where he was, or what he was doing, he was happiest surrounded by family and friends.
On his behalf, the family would like to express heartfelt appreciation for the many people who went above and beyond this past year to spend time with and or support him with this last battle. Gord Miller, Kevin Cardinal, brother George, the incredible staff at CancerCare Manitoba, Debbie and the staff at Safeway Pharmacy at Madison Square in Winnipeg, and lastly Amanda at Beausejour District Hospital, thank you all.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to CancerCare Manitoba. A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.

A wonderful man and person has left this earth but he will never leave our thoughts or our hearts. Terry was one of the best people that we had the pleasure of knowing for far too short a time. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to know and spend time with over the years, and we will miss him always.
Terry always had a warm hug or a kind word for people, and enhanced the lives of those who knew him. He was genuine and honest to a fault, and all we can say is thank you Terry for being part of our lives and allowing us to be part of yours.
