Johnson, Brad – Post Register

Edwin Bradley Johnson, 75, of Idaho Falls, passed away February 16, 2022, at his home, surrounded by his loving family and loyal dog, Kona. Brad was born September 4, 1946, in Idaho Falls, Idaho, to Edwin Hilding Dellis Johnson and Ludene Robinson Johnson. He grew up and attended schools in Idaho Falls and worked on his family farm. He graduated from Idaho Falls High School and then attended Idaho State University where he studied Veterinary Medicine and Pharmaceuticals. On November 6, 1970, he married Linda Sue Gardner in the Idaho Falls Temple. They were blessed with three children, Brady, Kim, and Kelly. Brad and Linda made their home in Idaho Falls where Brad worked in Sales and Marketing for various companies, including Roger Brothers, Sunspiced, Teepee, Basic American Foods, and Wada Farms. During his college years, he was the proud owner of a 1966 Chevelle Super Sport and loved cruising around in it with his sweetheart. Another favorite was his Mustang Mach 1. He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Although he wasn’t much of a church-goer, he had one of the biggest hearts and would do anything for anybody. He was an avid fisherman and enjoyed all things outdoors, including ice fishing, fly fishing, golfing, and was a gun enthusiast. In his younger years, he enjoyed archery, motorcycle riding, skiing, hiking, boating, and camping with his kids.
