IN LOVING MEMORY OF

Johnston

Obituary
Irene Johnston, 106, lived her life the way she wanted.
Always trying to make things better for her family, more often than not she would work two jobs. She & and Paul, her husband, owned three restaurant's.
It was getting close to their 50th anniversary and Irene would tell Paul, "don't you die on me before our big day or I will kill you." She was feisty. Happy to say they made it to 65 years!
Irene had style the way she walked; especially her dress; everything had to match. She had Panache!
She was proud to be 100% Swede. Could be why she was so stubborn. But the way she tells it, there is nothing wrong with a good Swede!
People would ask her "what contributes to your longevity?" "Lots of vitamins, pizza & beer" while watching Lawrence Welk on Saturday night. But must add, she also loved her champagne.
Left to cherish her memory are her three daughters; eight grandchildren & many, many great & great-great-grandchildren.
Irene was always strong in her faith. She is now with her Lord.
The funeral service for Mrs. Johnston will be held in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
