Charles William Johnson, Sr. Charles W. "Butch" Johnson passed away at his home on April 1, 2017 at the age of 66. He was born in Portland Maine, the son of Charles E. Johnson and Lorraine (Dodge) Johnson.  He lived all of his life in Maine, mostly in Westbrook, graduating from Westbrook High School.  He was employed at S.D. Warren Paper Mill, where he retired in 2006 after over 30 years of dedicated service. Charles was predeceased by his fiancé Vicki Moore and his father Charles E. Johnson.  He is survived by mother, Lorraine Johnson of South Portland, his son Charles W. Johnson, Jr. of Rochester NH, his daughter Jennifer B. Johnson, of South Portland, his grandson Brandon N. Brown, his sister Susan Coolbrith and her husband Herbert of Bangor, and his brother Paul A. Johnson and his wife Patricia of Baldwin.    He also leaves behind his furry canine companion, Jazz, who brought him much happiness and laughter. Charles was a life-long Mainer.  Throughout his life, he loved outdoor activities, working in his garage, riding his Harley, lobster fishing in the Atlantic, and spending time with friends and family. He was a straightforward, independent man, who lived modestly, and enjoyed having a good time.  To know Butch was to know someone who was genuine and hard working.  He will be greatly missed.
