Nora Loudeem Johnson born July 24th, 1950, and passed away September 11th, 2025, was survived by her beloved husband, Sidney Johnson and her son, Ron Stoddard.

Nora was born in West Virginia, and in her late teens she moved to California. After many years there, she and Sid found their true home in Minnesota, where they resided for 34 glorious years. As the story goes they opened a map, closed their eyes and landed on Lakeville, Minnesota – where they built a life together.

Nora loved children so much she opened a daycare center out of her home. She found joy in caring for kids, spoiling them with home-cooked meals, planning field trips and guiding them through creative crafting projects. She also gave her time to the VFW Women's Auxiliary.

At home, Nora took pride in her house and appearance. She was a hard-working, everyday person who found beauty in life's simple routines.  She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Nora was stern on not having a service, so we will honor her wishes but will always cherish the memories we have of her.
