Henry R. Johnston

Last Surviving Charter Member

 

The connection of the present club with those persons who founded it was severed in January of 1983 with the death of Hen Johnston, our last surviving charter member. Hen joined the Reading club on 1 December 1913, and passed away on 22 January 1983 following some 69 years of involvement with Reading Rotary. The club honored him in 1974 when he was elected an honorary member, a classification which was renewed each subsequent year.
