Jade Johnson Obituary
Born on April 4, 1977, in Butte, Jade brought joy from the very beginning with her bright blue eyes and dimples. She was a devoted daughter, loyal sister, proud mother, and excited grandmother.
Though she battled with pain in her body and mind those who knew her remember her for her big heart, empathetic spirit, and beautiful soul. She will forever remind us of the importance of compassion and understanding.
She was preceded in death by her father, Alton Wayne Cottrell.
Jade is survived by her mother, Cyndee (St John) Cottrell of Baker City, Ore.; her brothers, Eric Meron of Lake Havasu, Ariz., Miles Cottrell of Corvallis, Mont., and Dylan Cottrell of Mercersburg, Pa. She also leaves behind her daughters, Aspen Fay and Rheanna Johnson; her son, Eli Johnson; granddaughter, Aleah Cook; grandson, Arlo Johnson; and friend and ex-spouse, Zack Johnson-all of Butte, Mont.
A remembrance reception will be held on Friday, September 26, 2025, from 4 to 6 p.m. at St. John's Episcopal Church Parish Hall, 15 N. Idaho Street, Butte. Food will be served.
In lieu of flowers we encourage the practice of compassion and kindness.

My sincerest condolences to all of her family. Jade and I went to school together and I always considered her a good friend. We recently chatted about loving being grandmothers. I will miss seeing her, hugging her and catching up. My heart is broken for you, she was a treasure.
