(November 6, 1932 - January 13, 2025)
On Monday, January 13, 2025, in her 93rd year with clear mind and conscience, our mother and matriarch Herdis passed peacefully and on her own terms at the SAH, into the waiting arms of her beloved Tommy (predeceased January 13, 2022).
Left to mourn are her children Rene (Janice), Allan (Suzie) and Annette Johnson (Les). She was the proud grandmother of Tanya Steele (Keith), Ryan (Kelly), Robert Calnan (Jennifer), Melanie Buettner (Jared), Tom Johnson (Tyra) and (late) Kimberly Johnson and 12 great-grandchildren!
Herdis was born in Frederikshavn, Denmark to Christian Christensen and Karen Laurine Mikkelsen. She was the sister of late Kristine, Lilly, Ella, Grethe, Tage, and Mogens, and 10 older step-siblings. She will be fondly remembered by her remaining relatives in Denmark. Locally she was a loyal friend and admired neighbour on Irwin Ave, Parkdale Dr, St Bernard Tower and more recently as the "Grand Lady" to the residents and staff at Windsor Place.
The Andresen family extends its deepest gratitude for the compassionate care and guidance provided to Herdis by Dr. J. MacLean (London, ON), Dr. E. Thomas (Stratford, ON) and Dr. Heather O'Brien (Sault Ste Marie ON).
As per Herdis’ wishes, no service or visitation will be held. Cremation has taken place.
VI ELSKER DIG MOR!
