Nahorniak, Colleen Ruth (nee Johnston) passed away peacefully on Thursday, December 6, 2018 in her 80th year with her husband and her children by her side after a courageous battle with cancer. She will be extremely missed by her husband Jim of 61 years, daughter Lesley (Frank) and son Mark (Jennifer), grandchildren Chantelle (Jesse), Brittany (Josh) and Adam (Amanda) and great grandchildren Grace and Isabelle (“the little ones”).
