Ken Johnston: husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend, passed away after a courageous struggle with pancreatic cancer in Calgary.
Ken was born and raised in Salmon Arm, BC. He first went to school at North Canoe and then later at Salmon Arm Senior High. Ken moved to Alberta where he met his wife Sharon and spent 33 years in the insurance business. Ken was very well respected by his peers who will miss his knowledge and experience. In addition to his family, Ken loved the outdoors, whether fishing, hiking, working in his yard or trying out new barbecue recipes on his deck.

Ken is survived by his wife Sharon, son Kevin (Victoria), only daughter, Tracy, all of Calgary, and his son Trevor, of Halifax. Ken also leaves to mourn him: his mother, Jean Johnston, his ony sister, Linda (Mervin) Weightman, his niece, Theresa Simpson, nephew Brent (Kelly) Weightman and their families, all of Enderby; his sister-in-law Joyce and her family of Prince George; also many cousins and aunts.
Ken was a very loyal and caring man.
