Johnstone was born Dec 13, 1977 in St. Cloud to Kenneth “Ken” Johnstone and Katherine Teigland. He grew up in St. Cloud and married the love of his life Angela “Angie” Kieffer on April 17, 1999 in Morris. Together, they lived and raised their family in Rice from 1998-2005 and resided in Sartell since. Johnstone worked most of his life as a wood finisher and stainer and had a great work ethic. He worked at CMP for the last 10-plus years. He enjoyed spending time outdoors, kayaking, camping with his mother- and father-in-law, hiking, and attending local sporting events and concerts. Johnstone was creative in his own way. He enjoyed baking especially baklava, gardening and doing diamond-dot art. He was a busy body, enjoyed tinkering in the garage and keeping up his lawn. Johnstone had the biggest heart, was the life of the party, always helping others and was proud of the relationships he had in his life. Everyone looked forward to his heartfelt and loving hugs. Most importantly, he loved his family and his dogs and cat.
