Warren Earl Johnson

Warren E. Johnson, 76, of Laconia, New Hampshire passed away on April 26, 2024. Warren was born in Iola, Kansas to parents Richard and Dorothy Johnson. After high school Warren embarked on a courageous journey to see the world, enlisting in the United States Navy during the Vietnam War. Upon his return, he was stationed in New York, and it was during this time when he made the fateful trip to New Hampshire to meet Pam Perreault, his long-time pen pal. Their meeting blossomed into a beautiful love story, and they soon united in marriage in 1971. From their union came their beloved son, Brandon, who brought immeasurable joy into their lives. Warren's professional life was as dynamic as his personal one. Starting as a firefighter and EMT, he demonstrated his selflessness and dedication to protecting and serving his community. Later, he ventured into aerospace assembly at Titeflex Aerospace, where he embarked on a long and fulfilling career, showcasing his passion for aviation.

His love for flying extended beyond his career; Warren earned his private pilot's license and found solace and joy in the boundless skies above. Yet, amidst his adventures in the clouds, his greatest source of happiness was found in the laughter and love of his grandchildren.

Warren is preceded in death by his parents, sister Deb Lampe, Aunt Lavon and Uncle Orin, and cousin Charles.

He will be fondly remembered and greatly missed by his wife Pam; son, Brandon (Janet) Johnson; grandchildren, Colin, Ben, Chase, and Emily Johnson; sisters, Nancy (Brian) O’Dell, Charmanne (Tom) Sayles, Patty Drake, and Virginia Nelson; and many extended family and friends. A Celebration of Life will be held at 2 locations where all are welcome to attend. First at Highland Cemetery in Iola, KS on April 30, 2024 at 10am where he’ll be buried next to his mom as was his wish.
