God gave us the gift of Katherine Mun-Ming Johnston on January 2, 1958. He called her home peacefully with her daughter and husband at her side on June 4, 2003. In the too little time she had on this earth she gave us warmth, laughter, and love and she will be missed. Katherine was a loving mother, wife, sister and friend who touched all she met. She is survived by her husband Joseph M. Johnston, daughter Tabitha L. Hwang, sisters Christine and Joann Shih.
