Nadyne was born August 10, 1927 in Fort Scott, Kansas to Willard and Sylvia Latterner. She passed away April 23, 2016 at Hospice House in Kennewick.
Nadyne grew up a city girl in Fort Scott, Kansas. She became a farm wife when she married Pringle “Lad” Johnston on December 7, 1947. In 1973 they retired from the farm and moved to Richland, Washington. She worked as a custodian for the Richland School District, then as a custodian at Battelle until she retired in 1984.
Nadyne loved going fishing and camping. She and Pringle had a motor home and traveled all over the country with friends and family. Usually this included her sister, Helen Ramsey of Richland. They even joined a square dance group for a few years.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Lad, her brother Floyd Latterner, and her sister and brother-in-law Helen and Lloyd Ramsey.
