Myrna Lou Johnson

Myrna Johnson, 85, of Custer, Washington, passed away peacefully at home on November 26, 2024, with her husband by her side.

Born in Walhalla, North Dakota, to Bob and Sigga Gudmundson, Myrna moved to Blaine, Washington, in the 1940s and graduated from Blaine High School in 1957. Throughout her life, she exemplified dedication and service to her community. She worked at several local restaurants, including the Border Café, Home Café, and International Café, and later served as a clerk at the Coast to Coast Hardware Store. After moving to Custer in 1974, she embraced the rural lifestyle, becoming a substitute mail carrier and running a dairy farm on Stein Road with her husband for 14 years.

Myrna’s passion for nature and flowers led her to a rewarding role at Van Wingerden Greenhouses, where she worked for many years. Her green thumb and love for gardening brought beauty and joy to those around her and left a lasting impression on her community.

A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, Myrna is survived by her loving husband of 67 years, Tom; her children, Steve, Kim, and Jeff; her siblings, Bob and Marlys; and her lifelong best friend, Vicky Abel. She also leaves behind her cherished grandchildren—Shane, Cory, Ryan, Ted, Amber, Kristina, and Katlyn—and great-grandchildren, Dylan, Makena, Brayden, and Wynter, who were the light of her life.

Myrna will be remembered for her kindness, strong work ethic, and the unconditional love she shared with everyone she met. Her legacy lives on in the cherished memories she created with her family and friends. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
