It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Rory Johnson announces his passing in Chapleau at the age of 39 years. Cherished son of Linda Mannek (Mario Boissonneau) and Reed Johnson (Elaine). Loving and devoted father to Alyssa, Luciena and Royce. Beloved brother to Reed, Randy, Thomas, Janessa and Caleb. Stepbrother to Alex and Crystal. Beloved uncle to many nieces and nephews.

Rory was born, went to school and grew up in Woodstock, Ontario. He worked at many different jobs over the years and also lived and worked in BC and Alberta before moving back to Ontario. He had a unique sense of humour and one of the jobs he had and enjoyed was making balloon animals with his mom at various special events.

The highlight of Rory’s life was his children, whom he loved dearly and treasured the time spent with. He enjoyed cooking, family gatherings, campfires, nature outings, carnivals, board games, computer games, movies, and caring for his pets Loki and Dukino.

A Celebration of Life for Rory was held on September 22, 2024, at the Embro Community Centre. He will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered by many family and friends.
