Philip W. Johnston, 88, of Suffield, died Saturday, August 9, 2014 at a local nursing home. He was born in Masardis, ME; on September 6, 1925 son of the late Earl G. and Laura F.

He enjoyed traveling to the Caribbean Islands, and cruising to Eastern and Western Europe on Norwegian Cruise Lines. He is survived by two sisters Christina Picknes of VA, and Silvia Witkowski GA, and his best friend Charles Griger. Philip was an angel of a person, and everybody loved him.
