Joanne Johnson

d. July 11, 2023

Joanne M. Johnson, age 89, of Peterborough, NH passed away peacefully, and surrounded by the love of her family, on July 11, 2023 after a brief illness.  Joanne was born in Boston, MA to Hugh J. McCauley and Eleanor (Delaney) McCauley.  Joanne enjoyed ballroom dancing as a young woman and met her husband, Albert Johnson, at a dance in downtown Boston.  They were married for 61 years and raised five children together.  After living in Danvers, MA, Manchester, NH, and Westfield, MA, they found Peterborough, NH and called it home for nearly 50 years.

Joanne was a well loved-member of her community, participating in multiple clubs and charities throughout the years.  She very much enjoyed her time volunteering at Kyes-Sage Bookshop, St. Peter’s Church and Divine Mercy Parish.  Joanne recently joined the loving community at American House in Keene where she made many new friends and especially enjoyed her bridge club and listening to musical performances.

At the forefront of Joanne’s mind was family. Her love and support of them throughout her 60+ years as a devoted wife and mother is immeasurable.  Joanne will be deeply missed by her family.

Joanne was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Albert J. Johnson, Jr.  Joanne is survived by her children, Jodi, Elaine, Chris, Maura, and Al, son-in-law Dave, daughter-in-law Becky, grandchildren Mei, Stephen, Ana, Elise, Alec, Caleb, and Grace, and many nieces and nephews. Visiting hours will be held on Monday July 17, 2023 from 10 AM to 11 AM at Divine Mercy Parish, 12 Church Street, Peterborough, NH, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 11:00 a.m.  Burial will follow at St. Peter's Cemetery.
