JASPER NEIL JOHNSON On August 14, 2017 at 1:30 a.m., a heart of gold stopped beating. Left to mourn his passing is his partner Lesley. Jasper will also be sadly missed by his parents, Marilyn and Johann Johnson, his beautiful daughters, Heida (Cory), Jori (Viva) and Ella, as well as his grandson Nathan, his loving siblings, Bryan (Pam), Edward (Pam) and Karen (Gord), five nephews and one niece. Also his loving aunt Anna. On December 13, 1970, Jasper was born in Winnipeg, MB. Upon his arrival Jasper was joyfully whisked to Gimli, where he was lovingly introduced to his family. Jasper would spend the first 18 years of his life working on the family farm. Upon leaving the farm, Jasper's broad interests led him to many rewarding opportunities. Jasper was a kind, loving man who's sense of humour was enjoyed by all. Tough to say goodbye, however we must. Goodbye Jasper. How much do we love you? A bushel and a peck. In the words of Jasper, always be your yourself, unless you can be a Viking, then always be a Viking. Goda Nott Baby Brother. A celebration of his life will be held on Saturday, August 19, 2017 in the Minerva Hall, located at Highway 8 just south of the family farm, at 1:00 p.m. Condolences may be left at www.gilbartfuneralhome.com Gilbart Funeral Home, Gimli in care of arrangements.
