Councillor Johnson moved to Greater Napanee 12 years ago because she loves small town life, and after raising two girls in South Porcupine (8 hours north of Greater Napanee) with her husband of 38 years, still wanted to be close when the girls moved to Ottawa. She spent many years volunteering and fundraising for playgrounds and community events, and enjoys the company of her expanded family and grandchildren. Over the past nine years she has participated in committees and grown her local business. Now when traveling, Councillor Johnson and her husband prefer back roads, an undefined destination and the joy of discovering what's around the corner.
