Patricia Ann Johnson

Patricia “Pat” was born in Idaho Springs, Colorado, to Robert and Eva Shutts on August 26, 1936, and passed away peacefully on November 4, 2026, at the age of 90. At the time, she was a resident at the Clearbrook Inn in Silverdale. We are forever grateful for the staff and friends that became family while she was there.

 Pat grew up with her brothers Jim, Bill, and Don in Colorado. She graduated from Bear Creek High School in 1954 and attended college in Colorado. Upon returning from a trip to San Francisco, her friend Ann encouraged her to write a letter to Jerry Johnson, the brother of Dale Johnson, whom she met while she was there. Jerry and Dale grew up on Bainbridge Island and were stationed in San Francisco in the Army. In 1959, both couples were married. 

After their marriage in Colorado, they settled in Seattle. They eventually returned to Bainbridge Island to raise their family. Pat was happiest when she was taking care of others. She spent countless hours volunteering at schools and the Children’s Home Society of Washington. She enjoyed cooking, sewing, and camping (especially on the Hood Canal). Her greatest joy in life was being a Grandma to David, Eric, and Megan. Her family was her world, and she was ours. 

Patricia was preceded in death by her parents Robert and Eva, husband Jerry, brother Bill, sister-in-laws Ann Johnson, Carol Walters, Patricia Shutts, and Sherry Shutts. 

She leaves behind her children Scott Johnson and Cheryl (Scot) Standard. Grandchildren David Flodin, Eric Flodin, and Megan Flodin. Brothers: Jim (Norma) Shutts, Don Shutts, and brother-in-law Dale Johnson, and many nieces and nephews. In her heart, 

Colorado was always “home”. A celebration of life will be held there at a later date. 

Arrangements are entrusted to Cook Family Funeral Home of Bainbridge Island, WA
