    • Connie JOHNSON Obituary
      Published by Vancouver Sun and/or The Province from Dec. 24 to Dec. 26, 2011.
      JOHNSON, Connie Louise May 30, 1952 - December 19, 2011 A loving and devoted wife of 34 years, Connie Johnson died at VGH on December 19, 2011. Survived by her beloved husband Terry, children Kathryn, Pamela, Matthew and Jessica, mother Irene and sisters Brenda (Greg Mielnik) and Cheryl (Kevin Nichols). Numerous other relatives and friends will also share their loss. Connie will be joining her father Walter, who passed into heaven in 2003. Connie, eldest daughter of Walter and Irene (nee Sydor) Maksymetz, was born in Gilbert Plains, Manitoba, where she received her schooling. In 1970 she enrolled in the Business Administration program at Winnipeg's Red River College. After college, Connie left for Edmonton in 1972 and eventually worked for First City Trust and was relocated in July 1975 to Vancouver. After joining BC Gas in 1978, she was employed in various capacities over twenty years and obtained her CMA designation in 1986. In 1998 Connie joined her husband Terry in his CA public practice in Richmond, to her death. Connie was married to Terry in the Gilbert Plains United Church on July 9, 1977. Connie enjoyed curling in the winter, spending time with friends and being an education advocate, especially during her four years as PAC president at Richmond Secondary. Above all, she was devoted to her family, demonstrated by the fact that she was joined at the hip with her husband, and as her children grew, Connie was always there to cheer them on at every sports event, help with homework and query how their days were. The Johnson children could not have asked for a set of more devoted, loving parents, who were proud that all four children are university graduates. When the children were off at university, they could always depend on her for a daily phone call, motherly advice in an email, knowing that they were truly loved by her. Connie had a great sense of humour, a gift for the gab and a smile for everyone. She will be greatly missed and forever in our hearts. All are welcomed to remember Connie on Wednesday December 28th at 1pm at Brighouse United Church, 8151 Bennett Road in Richmond, with a gathering in celebration of Connie's life that evening between 6pm and 9pm at the Richmond Curling Club, open to all friends and family. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the BC Heart and Stroke Foundation. 604-275-7755
