Nancy was born in Atlanta, Georgia on September 20, 1929 to Gladys Thrower Starr and Homer David Starr. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Charles McCready Johnston, Jr., and her son, Charles McCready Johnston, III. She is survived and dearly loved by her sons Michael F. Johnston, Sr. (Judy) of Brunswick, Georgia and Mark Johnston of St. Simons Island, Georgia, her daughter, Rebecca Smith (Sid) of Portland, Oregon, daughter-in-law Maureen Conley Delaney of Gresham, Oregon, her ten grandchildren, Matthew Johnston, Anne Johnston, Michael Johnston, Jr., Libby Staab (Patrick), David Johnston (Kaylee), Madison Johnston (Justin), Jonathan Delaney, Katie Delaney, Jess Smith, Christine Smith, five great grandchildren, Brayden Allen, McKenzie Johnston, Lucas Johnston, Stella Allen, Ezekiel Steinke; and her cat that she loved dearly, Sassy.
Nancy was joyful, generous, loving, and had the best sense of humor. She believed in being involved in her church and community. She loved volunteering, playing in her bridge club, and spending time with her family. Above all she loved her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. While these words do not even begin to show you who Nancy was, she was the family’s moon, “Starr” and sun. She will be dearly missed by those who knew her.
