Lloyd Johnston, Salmon Arm, British Columbia
Governor General's Caring Canadian Award
Lloyd Johnston has quietly and consistently lent a hand to any community member in need since arriving in Salmon Arm in 1966. In the early years, he was active in minor hockey and baseball as a coach, referee and umpire. Since joining the local Rotary Club more than thirty years ago, he has been instrumental in many of its projects, including hosting at least eight students in his home as part of an exchange program. Mr. Johnston is also active in his church and visits people who are confined to home or hospital, and provides transportation for their families.
