Constituents Deceased list

Donald Austin Johnson ’60 was born on Sept. 12, 1938, and graduated from Loyola High School in 1956 and SCU. Don had the privilege and honor of being an inaugural member of the Peace Corps in 1962 and subsequently spent two years teaching English in Lagos, Nigeria. A Peace Corps publication described Don in this manner, “Don candidly admits to a disproportionate response to the LA Dodgers, Ray Charles, and e.e. cummings.” Upon his return from Nigeria, he established residence in Venice, California, where he remained for the rest of his life until his passing on Feb. 13, 2019. Don is survived by an older brother, J. Howard Johnson. Don’s legacy is faith, peace, and friendships.
