Dianne
Johnston
Jul 6, 1943 — May 10, 2025
With love, we announce the passing of Dianne (McCallum) Johnston May 10, 2025. Dianne was a woman of quiet patience, grace, giving heart and resilient spirit. Her lifelong love of dancing, gardening, new adventures and sense of style will be fondly remembered. Her greatest joy was her family. Rick (Julie) Johnston and Tracy (Paul Miller) Johnston share their mother's passing with their aunt, Edna Gerow. She will be affectionately remembered as Granny Di and Aunt Nan to many. Dianne has joined her parents Jack and Jennie McCallum, siblings Karl McCallum, Ron McCallum, Jean Cooper, Murray McCallum and Melvin McCallum. Deceased by Gary Stenton. The family are forever grateful to the neighbours, family and friends for their help and caring hands. A special thank you to the care team of Dr. Lebert, Dr. Lilly and Bluewater Palliative Care. You gave her strength in sustaining her dignity and positive attitude. Mom, as you often dreamed, may heaven be full of flowers. Her funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the Eric F.
