BREMEN — Edgar M. Johns, Jr., 84 of Bremen, went home to be with the Lord on July 22, 2021.

He was born in Boston, Massachusetts on October 28, 1936, son of the late Edgar Johns, Sr. and Alice M. Burns. The family moved to Maine and Edgar attended the Bremen one room schoolhouse, and then to Morse High

On August 6, 1983, he married Sandra Battles in Kennewick, Washington, where they made their home. They moved east to New Hampshire, Massachusetts and then to Maine in 1990. Edgar continued working as an Insulator for a short while. When he retired from his full time career he worked part time for N. C. Hunt.

Edgar had many talents, i.e., wood carving, fine metal art, painting, and making wooden flags for his family and friends. He was always willing to lend a helping hand with various projects. He enjoyed spending time with family, friends, and grandchildren.

Edgar is survived by his beloved wife, Sandra Johns, of 38 years; his brother, Norris Johns of Foxboro, Massachusetts; a half brother, Skip Burns and his wife Kathy; four sons, Travis, Andy, Eric and Larry; seven grandchildren; seven great grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
