Meet the Johnstons

Carl and Wendy Johnston consider themselves just normal, hardworking, 4-wheeling people, who love family, church and the great outdoors.   She grew up in Salt Lake City, he in Spanish Fork and they met at Southern Utah University where he studied police science which eventually turned into a 34-year career with the Spanish Fork Police Department.  At SUU, Wendy studied homemaking  which gave her a good foundation for her career as a homemaker and stay-at-home Mom to two sons and a daughter.  After the kids grew up and he retired from the SFPD, they said goodbye to Spanish Fork in favor of warmer weather and a second career for Carl as a training coordinator for the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.  The move also brought them geographically closer to their son and his family in St. George and their daughter and her family in Las Vegas. 

They rented for six months while looking for just the right home but it took nearly 7 months to find the perfect combination of house, yard, garage, neighborhood and price.  They finally found it at 914 Rio Virgin Drive, and luckily for them – and for us – its in the Bloomington 7^th Ward.  Speaking of church, Wendy says, as lifelong members they have done just about everything there is to do in the church and are looking forward to serving in whatever capacity the Lord and the ward needs them.

In their spare time, the Johnston’s enjoy golf, camping and grandkids, but Wendy also finds time for sewing and quilting.

Welcome to the B7 Ward.  We look forward to getting to know you better.
