Stanley lived a full life and was well loved by many. He will be deeply missed. A beautiful memorial was held for his family on Jan. 21, 2023, with all of his children in attendance. David H. Johnson David H. Johnson, longtime Alaskan and Yukon miner, died February 19, 2023, in Delta Junction, Alaska. Dave was born on October 4, 1943, in White Salmon, Washington, son of the late William Howard and Blanche Johnson. Dave was an eternal gold miner and mineral explorer in Alaska and the Yukon Territory. He was born with fierce independence and a drive to live life on his terms, which usually meant chasing that next gold deposit. He worked on the Alaska Pipeline, North Slope, and had his own placer mining company, Eldorado Mining Co. The northern life, which was always his passion and dedication to his dreams, led to countless adventures, a full passport from all corners of the globe, and many interesting stories to tell. He is survived by his two sons, Ryan Johnson of Centreville, Virginia, and Evan Johnson of Washington, DC, and his brother, James Johnson of Anchorage, Alaska. He was preceded in death by his brother, Robert Johnson. A Celebration of Life honoring the place where he was most inspired to be himself and created so many memories, Eldorado Creek, is planned on July 4, 2024, near Dawson City, Yukon Territory, Canada.
