With his family by his side, Alan David Johnson, was taken to his heavenly home on the evening of January 6, 2017.

Alan retired at the age of 63, after a 25-year career with the Coop Oil Refinery in Regina, Saskatchewan. In 2014, Alan and Glenda moved to Medicine Hat, Alberta and purchased their retirement home.
Alan’s greatest joys in life were his family, the gospel, and serving in the church. He was always there to help anyone in need and has touched the lives of numerous individuals with his humble service.
He took great pride in his gardening and loved to share the fruits of his labours with those around him. His family never left his house empty handed. He also enjoyed preparing feasts for his family and friends and will always be remembered for his famous fried chicken and fantastic holiday dinners.
Alan will be greatly missed by all who knew him, especially his family and friends. His family takes great comfort in knowing that they will one day be reunited with him, and until that day, he will be watching over them.
