Former Halton Hills councillor Moya Johnson was devoted to her community

Accolades are pouring in following the death of former Halton Hills councillor Moya Johnson.

Johnson represented the residents of Ward 3 for more than 20 years and was running for re-election in 2022 before withdrawing after finding out she had inoperable pancreatic cancer.

She is being remembered for her love and devotion to the community she and her family lived in for decades.

In addition to her years on council, Johnson worked in health care as a nurse and planner for more than 40 years and was devoted to ensuring Halton Hills is a healthy community.

I am so saddened to hear that former councillor, colleague Moya Johnson has passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. Moya worked hard for ward 3 and all residents in Halton Hills. She was so caring and was always concerned for the vulnerable in our town. @_HaltonHills
