Obituary of Thomas Johnston
Please share a memory of Thomas to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Thomas Oakley Johnston was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma to Earl W. and Annie (Oakley) Johnston, Jr. and passed from this life March 1, 2011 at the age of 33.
February 4, 1984 Tommy was his mother's birthday present as they adopted him. They fell in love with Tommy the first day they saw him and Annie declares he was the greatest present she had ever received. Tommy was a happy person who would laugh easily. Tommy trusted everyone he met and believed the best of themalmost to a fault as he was so tenderhearted that he was easily hurt but he learned to be quick at forgiving.
After graduating Jenks High School he enjoyed horticulture, working at Southwood Nursery for a period of time. He also displayed his artistic side by crafting musical instruments for Calicchio Musical Instruments Incorporated and applying his talent and love to so many different elements of life. His laughter, joy and contribution to life will be greatly missed.
Tommy is survived by his parents; his girlfriend, Shawny San Sing; his sister, Pamela Bloodworth; his brothers, Erik Earl Johnston and John Vernon; and numerous cousins.
A funeral will be held 11:00 a.m. Monday in the Memorial Park Cemetery with interment to follow. In lieu of flowers the family suggests donations be made to the Make A Wish Foundation For Terminally Ill Children, 4504 East 67th Street, Tulsa, OK 74136.
