Raymond Johnson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Rose & Hughes Funeral Home on Feb. 5, 2026.
Raymond F. Johnson, 100, of Hagaman, NY passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, January 31, 2026. Born in Amsterdam, NY on December 14, 1925 he was the son of the late Raymond and Mary Fonda Johnson.

A lifelong area resident, Ray attended local schools and went on to graduate from Bryant University. He served proudly in the United States Army from 1945 until 1946. For over 38 years he was employed as an accountant for Mohasco Industries until his retirement.

On May 2, 1959 he was united in marriage to Beverly Stewart Johnson. The couple made their home in Hagaman, NY and raised two children.

Ray used his professional degree to serve as the treasurer and board member of the Hagaman Mills Cemetery and Fairview Cemetery for many years. He was also a member of the Bigelow Weavers Club and a member of Amsterdam Municipal Golf Course, where he achieved a hole-in-one on the 16th hole. One of his greatest joys was attending his grandsons' sporting events and performances. Ray always put his family first but enjoyed the friendships that he forged throughout his life, and loved to recall his days in Rockton. He will be fondly remembered by all that knew and loved him.

He was predeceased by his sisters, Norma Abele and Lois Johnson.

Survivors include his wife of 66 years, Beverly; two children, Susan Saims and her husband Stuart, and Eric Johnson and his wife Kim; four beloved grandsons, Cameron, Gregory, Michael and Matthew; his siblings, Ralph Johnson, Anne Hayes and Carol Syzek; nieces, nephews and cousins.

A Service of Remembrance will take place on Saturday, June 6, 2026 at 11a.m. at the Rose & Hughes Funeral Home, 200 Church Street, Amsterdam, NY. A calling hour will precede the service beginning at 10a.m.

Interment with military honors will take place in Hagaman Mills Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in his memory may be made to the Hagaman Volunteer Fire Department of the Hagaman Mills Cemetery Association. Please visit the online memorial at www.roseandhughsfh.com
