Bountiful – Our dear wife, mother, and grandmother, Freya Christensen Johnson peacefully passed on to the arms of our Heavenly Father Saturday, March 26, 2005 at home. Freya was born August 1, 1925 in Hinckley, Utah to Lloyd and Irene Christensen. She grew up in love with her parents, six wonderful sisters, and one brother. She married her sweetheart Eugene Johnson on November 28, 1942. They were later sealed in the Salt Lake Temple.
Mom lived a happy, energetic life. She had a great sense of humor, a positive attitude and loved life. She found happiness in her grand kids, flowers, hummingbirds, her friends, sports, (especially the Utah Jazz) and above all her crocheting. We will all miss her yearly gift of crocheted Christmas slippers!
Freya was an active member of the Church or Jesus Christ or Latter-day Saints. She happily served in many callings, in the Primary, Cub Scouting program and in the Relief Society.
Freya is survived by her devoted and loving husband of 62 years, Gene; three sons, Joe (LaVon), Tom (Sherry), and Glen (Konee); 16 grandchildren; and 21 great-grandchildren. Freya is also survived by her sisters, Edna, Mavis, Loretta and Sharon. She is preceded in death by her parents, sisters, Betty, and Janice, and her brother Kay.
