Grant JOHNSTON Obituary

MbChB Distinguished Fellow of RNZCGP

Dr Peter "Grant" Johnston passed away peacefully, after a short battle with pancreatic cancer, on Monday, August 5, 2024. Aged 74 years. Loved husband of Lis, father of Shelley and Olivia, father-in-law of Rob and Kurt. Brother of Dale and Carey. Boom of Finn, Ella, Luka and Tate. A memorial for Grant will be held at the Taylor Dam Reserve at 1.00pm on Saturday, March 1, 2025, an opportunity for all to say a farewell to a much-loved doctor, and friend to many. Please bring a folding chair if you need to sit and walking shoes if you would like to join us for a relaxed walk. The walk will take us around Grant's regular 1.9km Taylor Dam loop, where we will be picking up rubbish and being tidy kiwi's, just like he loved. Come along and share your special memories of Grant.

That walk is also a favorite of mine and often myself and our dog enjoy the tranquility of this beautiful area. each time in the future I walk here i will feel Grants presence.
Unfortunately, on the 1st of March we will be returning from a Model A Rally in the north Island and will miss the special memorial walk. Jan and my thoughts will be with you........Allan Graham
