Daniel Myler Johnston

December 29, 1944 — January 27, 2022

Daniel Myler Johnston was born in Long Beach, CA on December 29th in 1944. Most of his youth he resided in Corona, CA with his parents and two sisters. He graduated from Corona High School in 1963 where he was very involved in sports. He was the first surfer from Corona, according to the local paper. He continued in football and wrestling through his college years, first at Riverside Community College and then UCLA. After marrying Susan K. Schwab and graduating with his bachelor's degree, he attended Dallas Theological Seminary, earning a Master Degree in Theology. Dan had accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Savior at UCLA and longed to serve in the ministry, which he did. He pastored in three Churches, taught at a Bible College and taught students in the local jails through independent study. He has been on the mission Board for Help for Christian Nationals for about 35 years. He and his wife, Susan, have three daughters: Hope Curran, Holly Verroco and Haven White and six grandchildren. Dan spent lots of time reading and studying the Bible out of love for Jesus. He also loved to backpack in the mountains on his time off. He loved nature and the quiet beauty he found there. Often he would take one of his daughters at a time backpacking or hiking. He and his wife loved going to Mammoth and/or Colorado on Vacations. Dan went peacefully into the presence of the Lord January 27th in the afternoon. He is survived by his wife, daughters and grandkids and one sister, Sharon Krueger and will be remembered as a loving, kind and faithful man of God. His favorite hymn was Be Thou My Vision.
