Elizabeth Johnstone Obituary

Mason's Island - Elizabeth Zug "Lisa" Johnstone, of Mason's Island, passed away July 9, 2022, following a short illness. Born June 16, 1945, and raised in Sewickley, Pa., she spent most of her adult life on Mason's Island in the home built by her

grandparents, Harry and Ethel Loutrel.

Lisa loved creating beautiful flower gardens, world cruising, being on the water, and all her four-legged friends. Lisa had a joyful and fun-filled life thanks to her loving husband, Tod Johnstone; her brother Terry Zug; her "three kids," stepdaughter Alexandra Wood, nephew Geordie Zug and niece Eliza Cox; their children; and innumerable friends. Lisa was predeceased by her parents, Gordon and Harriet Zug; and her brother Christopher Zug. Lisa will be greatly missed by all.

No formal service will be held.

My deepest condolences in your loss. She was one of the nicest people I've ever met (along with yourself) and always looked forward to her visits with the cats. We will all miss her at SVH.
